Not quite at the six figure mark, but I'll be there within the next year or so.

Well the main thing I will be doing is rebuilding the existing servers, OS (windows) patches, provisioning, monitoring, you know the works. I can't wait.

congrats breh :obama:

How many you got left?

Preciate it, got the 70-642 (Network Infrastructure config) and 70-646 (Server admin) hopefully I can get each knocked out in a month's span. That AD config was a damn beast, spent about 5 months preparing for it :damn:

Still new to AD. System admin at my job is overbearing with the infrastructure so my access to AD in the enviorment is limited to ADUC and WS08 R2 vms that I set up for labwork.

August will be here soon so I'm grinding. My plan is to knock out the MCSA cert by this summer, earn the CCNA be Sept then decide my career path from there. June will make 3 years in the IT industry and I'm still making slightly above entry level pay (huge L, I already know)

How much you making breh :leostare:

I'll give you the advice this Indian broad gave me. Start doing contract work. It's the easiest way to get a whole lot of experience real fast. Plus you'll make more. You hustle right, you can hit 100k+ in 3 more years.

Just sayin :nonikkas:

They done put a nikka in charge of the VOIP system here :youngsabo:

Well not really lol..its just basic support(adding numbers, vm etc) but its another thing to add on the resume and learn more about. :smugbiden:
Props, VoIP techs are in high demand. I troubleshoot basic issues at my job involving cisco unity and call manager
