New to IT, need help on what to do
LockedHi, I’m 27 in Ft Worth TX, and struggling as my decent job as a painter went down. I have most of my basics from a local community college and I really want to get into working on computers for a career. Not only because I’ve always been into it since I was very young, but I really want/need a good job. I don’t have any job experience or much knowledge with real troubleshooting. I’ve been looking on Careerbuilder and Monster, it seems alot of jobs want a Bachelor’s in Computer Science. I really have no idea which path to take, especially since I don’t have money, and my family are poor, unmotivated people. Am I screwed from the very beginning, or is there hope to make a career out of nothing? I have done some research at my community college, and I think I will start with Intro to Hardware and Software, and get my A+ soon, but there’s alot of people saying its worthless. Any help would be great, but please don’t use all the acronyms as I have no idea what they are. Thanks in advance,
Wes
