    I am a military retiree and career changer in my mid 50's. I have a bachelor's degree and have completed several MyComputerCareer programs. I'm still having issues landing high-paying roles or getting hired by organizations where I can move up. After finding and watching this episode, I'm all in on Yellow Tail Tech. I've accessed the website to learn more and booked a call. Although this is the first episode I've watched, it gave me a reason to subscribe to cuSTEM Journeys. I hope Yellow Tail Tech offers virtual training so I can attend from Texas and cuSTEM Journeys brings them back.

      I imagine the process of finding a high paying role is frustrating but keep working at it and you will find the right opportunity. I think you’ll like the yellow tail program - let me know if you end up enrolling. I’m based in Houston, TX hit me up on LinkedIn (Andrew Baines), and I’ll do my best to send you any events in the area that I think you should check out

    Where's all the jobs being posted? I see some on LinkedIn but times are changing. Everyone going to the cloud which seems to be a mistake for many businesses. Hybrid is probably best. In addition, this means Linux is only part of the skillset needed.
    I haven't seen too many straight up Linux Admin positions and if I do see them it's usually for principal engineer or something.

    I think tech is a great career, otherwise I wouldn't have been in it for almost 20 years. With that said, I think the lifestyle that accompanies tech is a bit toxic. Late/long hours, weekends/on-call, production "support", sitting all day leads to back and neck issues, and more. I moved from support to admin to devops to cloud, and I am happy where I am, but even with all that movement and progress and working fully remote... I somedays wish I just became an electrician and moved around more and had more autonomy. That would lead to a longer life, healthier body and healthier mind, just my 2 cents. Some advice I generally give young people is: 1 - keep growing and learning otherwise you will get replaced. 2 - stand up every 45mins for 5mins, 3 - do not work on a "on-call" or "weekend support" schedule, 4 - when they stop valuing you or you get bored and aren't learning, start applying.

    Is there a guarantee you get a job or your money back? All these programs are always more than community college with actual degrees. Unless you can 100% no catch can guarantee me a job making 6 figures, then the time and money invested in this program is worthless. Yeah you may say oh you'll gain experience but if you aren't using it on a daily basis you will not retain what you have learned.
