I make 220k as a "cloud devops engineer" and never worked this little in my life

Bullshit your way through the AWS SA and Security certs (all the tests are on Udemy for like $9). Put those on your resume and really learn how to use cloud formation and you're set.

Okay so learn how Linux works, thanks for the reply op.

a lot of government contracts have this "tender offer", i think its called. its like they need to have 10 guys with X,y,z certs, so if you get certain certs you can be guaranteed a super comfy job if a company needs to fill that seet

could be something like this education.oracle.com/oracle-cloud-platform-application-development-2021-certified-specialist/trackp_OCPAD2021CA

I’ve done cloud devops stuff before for my project and it was intriguing. I’d do it for that money of course but I kind of like doing full stack Typescript developing. Go ahead call me a faggot but I make more than all my friends or family and work very little as well. Didn’t do shit today other than watch my LUNC

based cert holder, boomer fucking love certs. best is to get your company to pay for them, some you also can get cheap if you are "student" I think

Np, I'm not op tho

Is k8s usually required in cloud envs? I only got to use docker swarm… yeah ik

more and more is migrating over to k8s now, I have migrated over a big boomer system for transport insurance modeling that has like 15 microservices and docker compose and whatever the last months now

I think one reason is that Google is supporting it and docker hub and docker desktopis not free anymore

very similar situation here even down to my age. Except I make 75k before taxes, and that's in c*nadian "dollars"

Send out team emails and CC leadership:

"Doing server maintenance tonight"
>reboot servers with no changes

"Prepping to upgrade systems this week"
>Literally take the day off

"Doing system upgrades tonight"
>sudo apt update
>sudo apt upgrade
>reboot server and make sure services come back up online

Work 3 hours a week.

would be fun if we work at the same company, there is a guy that replies maybe every 4 hours that has access to some production systems that I don't have, so sometimes he need to to a manual restart

It probably takes him 2 mins at most, but he does it after 3 hours each time

Never seen him online after 1630

Also, op, mind sharing your credentials? Did you get an education in comp sci or just got in through certs and experience alone? I'm going into swe not DevOps but still kinda curious

Where do you get certs?

Alright, certs it is then. I got that AWS assoc course on udemy for 2022, is it enough to get the udemy cert just to get a better job? I want hands on exp more than the cert itself
Perfect, k8s isn’t even that hard to understand, I’ll just get a cert for that too lmao

I have a BSC in comptuer science the i started a masters degree in distributed systems but I got a full time job and didn't finish. this was over 10 years ago, only 2 companies ever even mentioned that I did not complete it

I literally posted a link? there is also AWS and Azure

i only make 100k but similar work, all remote

I also get a stipend for 1200$ per year to buy things for my "home office". I feel i might need a 150$ gamer mousepad soon to fill up this years budget

kek
absolutely this

>was up late watching some upgrades, i gonna take the half day off
>sleep to 11 and browse biz on the phone

I made a lot of money last year and quit my devops job. It pays good and it's mostly easy work, but at this point I fucking loathe and despise IT, computers, fucking kubernetes, cloud shit, all that shit. If I never have to do another agile standup again it will be too soon.

Yeah I know I'm missing out on money. Fuck it. I'd rather raise chickens.

>Kubeadm
>Kubefed

yeah i feel you bro

the only reason I’m still in IT is to be able to save money to buy real estate, and have capital to gamble on crypto
wagmi

Probably the most based thread on Any Forums desu

>set 2 ticket sin JIRA to "resolved"

a day? you're overperforming user

btw, how hard is it to get a cert like this?
do you have to write down info and basically study like for any other exam in uni?
I think the company that I work for now pays for these sort of certs

Based. I hate computers.
t. Software engineer for 10 years.

i hate everything about it. it's all so jewish. you need to use these jewish programs like jira that do basically nothing a .txt doesn't and only makes money to the product owner. your stack includes 25 different software that are selling you pickaxes during a gold rush when you could do the same without paying jews to use their issue tracking software.

some are harder , some are easier but maybe 10-20h

in the end its just some checkbox exam and in minecraft maybe you could have a laptop on the side with answers because you of course to the test from home

is it possible for a high IQ autist neet to attain these “certs” within two years and find a job that pays 50-75k?

I've been developing for 7 months and I am already there. I don't know how I'm supposed to do this for another 25 years or more.
