Thanks For All The Fish!

Well, I recently handed in my 2 weeks notification to my boss after working for an MSP for 8 months. Not that I hated the job or anything, but I managed to get a networking gig at the state level in the public sector.

Slightly better pay (per hour, but slightly less hours so it is pretty much the same), less than a mile from my house, I have several of my best friends there already and we have worked together in the past, soooooo much better benefits, oh and a pension.

I honestly feel bad leaving but my boss understands that I need to do what is best for my family and is sending me with well wishes. I wasn't looking for a gig but it fell into my lap and couldn't say no. I now have two jobs that are begging me to come back and stay. Well the coworkers are at least.

My biggest fear is that this is a predominately networking position and, while I am not an idiot when it comes to networking (except subnetting in my head, fuck that noise) it is the piece I am weakest with but I am excited to dive deeper into it.

I want to thank everyone here on this board for all of the invaluable information I have learned from everyone here. Not only on the technical side, but building my self confidence and my professional demeanor. I will still be reading this sub most days on my off time to keep up with current events and giving the little pieces of advice that I can, I will be moving over to the dark side of networking.

For those of you in the Buffalo area that have helped, I owe you a drink!

Did I mention the pension?
