My Crossroads

Long time,
Well a lot has changed for me since my last post, where do I began........I've switched 9-5's yet again (job markets' ruff) currently I'm unloading trucks from 4-1am (7.65/hr). My business has slowed due to time constraints. I don't have the time to really advertise anymore. I'm in my last sem. for my AAS degree @ ITT-Tech (March Grad). And I'm at a crossroads on my career path. At this time one thing is for certain I want to have a career in Linux/Unix. Ive spent the last 12 months learning Asterisk from the ground up. I'm no guru yet but not to far from it. Ive also been reading off and on O'Reily's "LPI cert in a nutshell". This book is good for studying if you already have some what a back round working with Linux (1yr or better). I didn't set the usual new years resolution. I just set short term goals to accomplish. I'm not getting any younger and its time to choose a path for my life and run for it. My first goal is to grad from school. Second to build my brand. Third to take a cert and Pass it. Fourth learn a programming language. Fifth to work in the IT field full time. I know I've said this in the past but my blogs will become more frequent and more techie. My goal is to write every time i learn something new. I want to do this not only to keep track of new items but to also help those seeking answers to some of the problems that may or may not be so common to some geeks. In closing happy new years to all and until next time "RTFO" (rock the f...on)
