I wanna know how to get one of these damn jobs; I currently play with shit like Proxmox and high availability clusters at home just for a laugh, and because I enjoy it; but with no formal education - and I'm making peanuts at work rn. I wish I could break into this somehow.
Find a decent MSP and grind there for a few years. It'll suck but you'll touch a ton of different environments in a short time, and get exposed to all sorts of broken things.
Are even MSPs hiring? Seems like everyone everywhere is getting laid off without respite.
The one I work at is, but it's a smaller operation with about 250 clients, from 4 separate offices.
