I'm 32 and never had a job I loved or was passionate about, I chalked it up to the game, but I will put in the work and make myself at least tolerate it and be happy from the lifestyle the job offers.
Pawg (FBA) Is Cyber security oversaturated?

Seems to be that way
Even around me, most people rather talk than work just to justify being there.
I’m not complaining, just saying. That thought process is one reason why a lot of these companies IT infrastructure sucks.
It is what it is though. They also don’t want to train in fear of you taking another position for more money
OP I respect the hustle, fukk them humans that negged you, and I understand man. Heads hurting out in the field. shyt, as somebody with IT experience, I just honestly gave up on the whole chasing that dream, because the suits aren't hiring, they are fukking with the pay, they are laying out folks at alarming rates, and using AI to shyt up issues and error, while the ones that can do it for a portion of the buck get the shaft.Its a cold dystopian world, but we will make it breh.
do you think A+ is worth it in 2025
Also....breh let me asked you this....what other traits that you are known for? Like do you have any sort of passionate projects or ideas for yourself to make bank?
I'm one of those types of folks that always preach to follow dreams. If you are deep into cybersecurity, why not do content creating involving it? Maybe a podcast concerning the abilities of fixing up PCs and raise awareness to those that need it.
Bottom line, I don't want you to just be like "fukk it this market is dead, let me move on", but more so...regroup and use your credentials to build something greater.
Right now, I'm going back to writing, making music, and just focusing on my health as the wait for my disability can be a bih, but I still am pushing through. Don't give up on that hope of making it in such an industry, just make the industry come to you...

Repped OP to combat the negs cause I'm over here at work dying right now at the 1st page lmao
this topic title is an indictment of TLR. the only way a legit question would get attention is to have either PAWG or FBA in the title and he said fukk it i'm going with both.
A+ useless in 2025
Network + sec + combined with any cloud intro cert /splunk
Skills in Linux/lil bit of python /and traffic analysis
The rest of your resume should have mini projects
Tons of free projects your can learn from the web

It really sucks but its just the way of the world I guess. A reflection of life in general. You want knowledge and enlightenment from the ones with wealth of it, but they won't give you a sip or got "better" things to do.
So you reach out to the dirtbags and lowlifes (sorry TLR but shoe fits get a matching purse
), and they will give you shyt but the ones that are semi sober will help you in the right direction.Reminds me of when I tried to play bass guitar. I went to this music store in Philly asking for lessons and the pretenious pricks just treated me like I was invisible
Fast forward and changing my steez. I had gain knowledge from ear and still learning. Sometimes you gotta do for self or hope for the right people to guide you in the right direction.

People always say I would make a great DJ. I was always given the aux on trips and put people on to music and I can sometimes even predict the blends when I go out. Besides that, I do BJJ play basketball and weight lift and read. I make some money on the side helping people find jobs and with resumes. I always was a strong writer and avid reader but I felt the field didn't pay similar to Dj'ing.
I appreciate the advice. I hope you return to full health and push through. You have really good things you are working on on the side.
Not many people I know had an easy transition into cybersecurity. I took a huge paycut and had to relocate in order to find my first cybersecurity job.
Your job sounds pretty laid back. Just so you know cybersecurity jobs tend to be much more stressful and time consuming. Especially the more money you make. Work life balance is almost non-existent.
I can speak on the topic, but I dont give a fukk too. Just came to say that title confused the shyt outta me. Thought it was somehow an FBA Pawg talkmbout cybersecurity. Had to come in here just to see wtf this was about
You got ya answer...Now put those abilities to effect and when you become a millionaire, break the marsupial off with 5 percent
