nope, it was a "don't be an atz" post
Constructive criticism is welcome but what you did was provide a completely unnecessary dismissive backhand.
Tech is my passion and the one topic I dedicate myself to happily and obsessively. Willing to put in the time; You bet. Willing to start at the bottom as the server room janitor and work my way up; sure thing (provided my family remains fed). Willing to take crap from the self-righteous who makes no attempts at diplomacy or understanding; not a chance on that one.
If you have something constructive ad beneficial to share then by all means; have out with it. I'm open to any tips from the professionals that come before me.
What your current posts do though is simply spot the favor of a professional lower on the latter than yourself and give them a few kicks in the teeth. I'm sure you feel much better about yourself in doing so of course.
So, again, what things in your life cause you frustration so the rest of us can return the favor and provide you with some backhanded and dismissive "tips". Should I start making personal and insulting accusations about your divorce and past financial difficulties? Is that really going to help you in any way or inspire you to see my point of view?
(edit to add) after rereading your post.
I'd also like to add that I'm perfectly willing to fulfill the applicant requirements for various certifications which will actually benefit my professional development. I'm not saying "boo, life is not fair" at all. The point is that one can?t just show up for the exam and write even if they have the knowledge to do so; I don?t mean paper cert memorization but actual knowledge of what and why.
The point is, there are more variables than just "willing or unwilling to do a bit of work". You know far too little about me and my history to make these snap judgments about me.
But what do I know, I've only been at this since shortly after I learned to walk and am still highly in demand outside the job market I'm currently limited too for variables beyond your insinuated "lazy complainer" reasons.
If you'd like to discus the topic civilly and provide tips which are beneficial then I'm am all ears. You need only to step down off your pedestal, leave out the yelling caps crap and drop the passive aggressive BS.
Until then and with all due respect, please feel free to not respond further.
