It is

EARN YOUR SHIT

They think "I can put together a computer that eats Crysis and spits out Cyberpunk and keep it free of malware, so clearly I can maintain a server and keep an entire office networked." - This is basically everyone who I know who got *into* IT then got straight out.

Now how many of those dudes do you think dived into the deep end, and somehow managed to keep their heads afloat in the field.

And it's my world

And I got to work through it

And so do others

Life is a game

If I suck, I suck at it

Not anyone elses fault

Another thing that hurts people is getting into shit they don't need, like payments that will cripple them

Life is not a game, it's a war, and people who think it's a game die first

Sure that $300/mo doesn't sound like much to some, but what are they already paying out of their checks.

@Hazard Pluto NOOOOO, ITS A GAMEEEEEE

I treat war as a game too

AM IN PLAYING GREATTTT

The field of IT is highly competitive, honestly building a career in IT is roughly comparable to building an audience for a podcast using solely the itunes podcast library system.

For strategy

IMMM

Life is a game, the escape button is only a pull away <:pepega:552238110797201408>

Noble just outed himself as a clown I guess

ok I'm done with that cringe shit

Shit metaphor but it's about the same in scale of likelihood especially if you're not great at it.

@Stone Cold Steve Autism you got that right rip

I don't even know what worth my parents saw in this degree so much

you play the game pick a feild. and do well at it. you pick a shit one, you just played the game bad

Yet here I am

But yeah I've thought about just going into a smaller town and starting up a computer repair gig, but the issue is, especially with building computers, is competing with the market that is online service

And I'll play it well

The more competitive a field is, the less people can hack it....

Actually know what? This is really the good metaphor, it's natural selection.

Duh

Fuck walmart sells comparable prebuilts now

Ok took awhile to catch up

and the laptops are fucking good for the price

rant over

buyt yeah

Moreover

Went to get a sandwich

a lot of people are cluing in

Uh huh

"Oh my computer is having a problem? Better just google a vague description and.... oh there's the solution."

ive also noticed the people who do nothing to help themselves complain the most
