Hopefully everyone has been living life
the way that it is supposed to be lived...
FULLY!!
Well your friend here has been very busy
to say the least. In the middle of a career
change, I have been very busy. Coming from
over a decade of being in the automotive
industry the thought of going from manufacturing
to information technology was daunting to say
the least. For the better part of my life there
has always been a fire burning inside me to
pursue my dream of working in the computer and
information technology world.
This awesome transformation has been a very
challenging, grueling, yet rewarding experience
for me. Now I am a Microsoft Office Professional
Certified in Windows Vista, Microsoft Word, Microsoft
Excel, and I also a Certified Business Professional
through the IBTA(International Business Training
Association) with an emphasis on customer service.
Currently, I am studying for my CompTIA A+ certification
and my CCENT(Cisco Certified Entry-level Network
Technician)and my CCNA(Cisco Certified Network Administrator)
certifications.
Just saying ALL of that is a mouthful, so imagine
transforming your thoughts and mind to start to
learn how computers and software work. Learning
how information travels throughout networks has
somehow become very interesting to me. Imagine
that just over six months ago, I had no computer
certifications and not much to put on a resume.
Today's economic and social conditons are changing
at a rate on par or faster than technology changes.
Now that's fast!
My warning to everyone out there listening:
"Don't ever get too comfortable doing what
you're doing"
In the technology world, we have to keep current with
certifications and changing technologies just to stay
afloat and relevant. In saying that, when you are
grinding it out in your daily lives keep in mind that
making yourself more valuable and current in your
employer's eyes can lead to you maintaining a good
view in their eyes.
To Your Success,
TrafficBos
