The 501 is retired so you have no choice but to take the 601.

Saw this on LinkedIn earlier:
Some companies are practically begging to get hacked ...
Godaddy one of the world's largest web hosting companies recently got breached with the attacker gaining access to the database usernames and passwords of over 1.2 million of their WordPress customers. This means that the attacker could easily modify or even delete the websites of the affected customers if he wanted to.
The breach itself is not the issue here. The issue is the fact that the attacker was able to gain access to the passwords because Godaddy had the very not so bright idea of storing them in PLAIN TEXT. Apparently the IT security staff over at Godaddy have never heard of this technology called encryption or maybe they have and just chose not to use it. This right here is a security failure and neglect of epic proportions. This is the equivalent of a night guard not just sleeping on the job but taking sleeping pills to ensure that they get a good night's sleep.
Quite astonishing .... but hold on because it get's even worse. Godaddy also discovered that the attacker gained access way back on Sept 6 so the attacker has had over 2 months to do as much damage as he wanted to and also establish persistence. This is completely unacceptable and Godaddy needs to perform some serious security reevaluation asap. You would be amazed by how much a company can avoid getting hacked by simply implementing the most basic of cyber security tools.

Numbers mixing but being upfront about a no or you gonna have to dig or don’t bother
asked if interested in LA or NY not really
Calls and last min hop ons all titles secured but eh one tech role not particularly appealing other than automation of some parts of role. Had to stall one company “feel bad” but timing is working out
The other breh at a BBB call tomorrow hope it goes fine but a little mission/"saving" based and ehhh leery will see what he says
Conversely relative with new kid subject to shutdown sounding imminent so will help with resume and see what’s what

It's official-er. Interviewed with the finance director yesterday because he didn't get a chance during the initial round. I was nervous but we had a good convo. Basically told him I feel competent technically, but learning the business and it's data is where my anxiety is coming into play. He said he was good to see a technical person focused on the business.
This role is kinda a big deal..."Senior Manager" title and I'll be responsible for the data strategy and direction to some degree. All those times I spent as a member of a project team, dragging management for filth, now I'm the one in the position to be dragged. I can't let me down LMMFAO!
HR sent the itinerary for the week I'll be there. They have me starting at 10am on Monday, with my rise and shine at 5 am ass. Then they have a rotating schedule with people in the office, I was in the Monday/Tuesday round. LOL if they have me working remotely in the hotel around the corner Wed-Fri, I might be a little mad. I can go home Tuesday night because packing for a week is hell. Work clothes, after work clothes, workout clothes, shoes, accessories, etc. It's a multiple suitcase situation.

I wonder if I can start and finish this salesforce admin cert in a month and a half?
I've already started fielding some interviews for new roles. Had a couple of recruiters hit me up on LinkedIn for some manager roles. I think I'll keep fielding interviews so I stay sharp but I won't actually look to move until May/June 22. Jan thru May 22 I need to knock out some exams and really tighten up on the finances and my skill set. Past couple of months have been adjusting to the relocation. Once we get back into the office 3x a week I'll need to recalibrate my plans a bit.
I only contribute up to what they offer me as well.
New gig auto set my 401K contribution to 8% but they only matching up to 5%. So I changed my shyt to 5%

Interview lined up in about 2 weeks. I plan on doing Leet Code on the job since we're in that vacation window where nothing is expected to get done. The work is easy enough right now that I can breeze through tasks anyway.
Yes. Give yourself an hour or 2 every single day.

I’ll have a lot of time on my hands in January so I feel like it’s possible
I know you can do it.
Hopefully, this can be a December that's light on spending...I've been good with the finances of late but I can't help but shake the feeling I could be even tighter
