Yeah when you sense thw writing on the wall best to get the hell on ans be safe than sorry.

Lol this america, you aint going to get a hero cookie for staying in a sinking ship. And for full time roles, unless you were somewhere for a long tenure then even if they offer a severence it may not be worth the headache of looking for a job while not having one.

I do IT type work...had an end user who’s responsible for low level sys admin really ask me “when you say switches...what do you exactly mean?” :gucci:

I can't tell you the numbers of times I worked with people who expected to be more knowledgable than they truly were. This pic sums up my feelings on these situations.

Quick question and apologies if it has been asked.

Trying to go A+ - Network+ - Security+ but the local college that offers A+ keeps cancelling classes due to low enrollment.
Can I skip right to Network+?
No I have never been a tech which is why I am considering going A+ first
The only prerequisite for Network+ is to be computer literate but I also dont want to deny myself useful information and dont want to keep spinning my wheels either.
Any advise is appreciated.
