So I didnt get the job with Red Hat, Yeah fukk them
I usually dont think anything of rejection but these MF contacted me on a cot damn Sunday afternoon asking if I was still interested after I applied last September.
Alot of these recruiters and HR people are wish washy and flaky as shyt. And I'm so tired of dealing with this shyt.
Next position I get, I'ma sit my ass down for a minute until I can get my weight up , bounce for a 130k+ role, stack/invest and fall back. I'm aiming for semi retirement
Soon as I get some passive income flowing
Alot of this IT/Corporate game is just people trying to out-bullshyt each other and nickle and dime each other; and that's before you get the job SMH. So never feel obligated to volunteer info about yourself (other than legal) that you think might screw you over . Omit, hold your tongue, embellish or outright lie if its gonna mean the difference between you putting food on the table. shyt is too hard out here to be puttin up with bullshyt because of "integrity". These companies will blow so much smoke up your ass about how great the company is, work culture, what skills you'll pick up, vacation days and even job duties. Play the game right back with them. Dont short yourself due to some false sense of nobility or morals. fukk that. Get yours by any means, be smart about it, and dont over-sell your abilities if you know you've never done it. all I m saying is....
If you got 14 months Exp working with Active Directory Domain Services and they ask for 2 years, Say you got 2 and a half. What ever make sense for your situation. These are just arbitrary numbers they pull out their asses, The full scope of AD DS can be learned in a 8 hour course on Udemy followed by a month of practice in a homelab.
I've had interviews where MF was pressing me about experience with this or that and when I got the job I barely used it if at all. Waste of cotdamn energy and and totally oversold the scope of the job.
My resume is SOLID. I got all the hot relevant certs that I need, and I can talk that shyt, but at the end of the day, all this shyt is a dice roll. The only thing I can control is how many dice rolls I get. MF could bush me because my beard is crooked or my webex reception is laggy during a interview. Petty shyt.
My motto is to take it seriously but don't take it personally, even though it's hard not to sometimes dealing with weak, flaky MF
Just know that nobody gives a shyt about wasting your time, selling you data, getting your hopes up, or just outright lying to you for their own gains. You owe it to yourself to reciprocate that same cutthroat mentality and play the game the way it's supposed to be played.
I aint bitter. I aint mad, I been living by my words. I just want to give some game to anybody that cares to read because I dont want them getting discouraged and giving up due to burn out. That shyt is gonna come , but it's how you deal with it. Hopefully somebody dont just see this as just some ole bullshyt i'm typing and can benefit from these words and be better prepared when the bullshyt comes.
Done.
oh yeah this is 100% facts they really look out for each other when it comes to this tech shyt
