This incident will be reported.
You are not in the doers file
fsck
in today’s world I think you have to get in as a Windows System admin and then change your role by demonstrating how the Linux solution would be better for whatever the priority task at hand is
Not even sure of my chances at that these days. There are very few opportunities where I live too.
Got a few Linux VMs running on my work laptop for testing stuff though and literally no one else in the support team knows how to test what I use them for. It’s a fairly rare task that no proper process exists for. My thinking is to see if I can either roll out VMs to people or better but less likely get my own virtual server.
document a basic set by set how to use it
make it look really good and find your coworker friends who will test it and give you feedback
documentation writing and scary shit like linux to normies goes a long way
Guess I was lucky. I got an apprenticeship as a Sysadmin and was told I’d mostly be in the in-house/client IT (Windows) but since I had a lot of Linux experience already, on my first day they put me into the server/hosting department (Linux) where I spent most of my apprenticeship.
But yeah looking for a job now, most companies seem to look for “good experience with windows/Windows server required” and “experience with Linux a bonus”.
I’m just here for the En Vogue.
