Going on 10 years in IT, this is roughly how my path has gone thus far: 1. Hardware/break-fix/bench tech (started at a MSP - super tough, but I'd recommend it as I learned like 5 years worth of stuff in about 2) 2. Windows and Helpdesk (got into the Software Industry - huge advantage to this! Work in an industry that values IT!) 3. Networking and Windows SysAdmin (started taking CompSci classes here) 4. Linux & scripting (Bash, Python and PowerShell) 5. Cloud Ops (where I am now) IT is a wonderful field with TONS of opportunity! Do what you love and (most importantly) *never stop learning*!!
You've probably been the only IT guy I've come across that acts so positive about getting into the field.
I'm a beginner and I already took class for the Microsoft office. I feel like, you should be my professor in college for every single IT classes because you explain them very well. Thank you so much!

I still have so much to learn but I'M ALL FOR IT!!!!! Recently passed my A+ exam in 4 weeks time and started documenting my journey to becoming a Network engineer. Now I'm on to developing my skills and getting my Network+/Cisco certs. Your videos help and inspire me so much! Never imagined I could become a Network Engineer if I hadn't run into your videos, THANK YOU!!!
Just really starting to pursue A+ and have been walking around feeling like I know a ton of stuff and then I see one of your videos and realize I have a lot of learning to do! As always, you're awesome, Zack. Thanks for being.
I am 83 yrs old and i love this video and i teach about this thing to my grandson
I work in the IT industry and i gotta say you hit it right on the head.
aunts and uncles hand me their phones all the time and say "Fix this thing"... reboot fixed, hand the phone back and I'm a fucking genius lol
Hey quick question. How long would you estimate it would take to learn all of these things from scratch? With very little computer knowledge to begin with. And how does one go about beginning the process without feeling completely overwhelmed. Thanks, the question is for anyone with any info.
Great video. I always had a passion with working with computers and technology. You gave me more motivation and broke things down in a way people can understand.

"IT: learn to know what users can't be bothered to know."

Thinking about my life during this pandemic and I realized I want to know more and everything about the cyber world.
Apart from Powershell as an IT professional I use CMD everyday. Apart from all the usual stuff like ipconfig, ping, travertine, etc there is hostname (great way to find computer name), "echo %logonserver%" to find what domain controller the pc is using to authenticate against, "repadmin /replsum" to check if your domain controllers are replicating.
youre a really good teacher.....you use simple english in an understandable way that allows old guys like me to get it.thank you
