I love how the trend in tech seems to be to shift 100% of responsibility for professional development to the employee.
"Just get some certs on your own and build a homelab."
Yeah, I have 2 degrees and a bunch of certs, of which many require CEU or renewal costs. Everytime I ask for professional development it's "yeah there might be some budget for this one specific thing next quarter".
Yep, oh my god what a shock it was. I couldn’t believe what I was seeing
And selfhosting your own homelab is primarily open technologies that are leagues better than the ancient CRM system at work.
Yep yep yep
