I've been trying to get this going for about a year, my answers to some common Reddit questions in the r/ITCareerQuestions subreddit. It gets a bit heated during one of the questions because sometimes I'm not sure what people are expecting when they want to work in a technology position.
We've all been on them, those painful calls when core systems are down. You need to prove your innocence and show how you are competent in what you do. I break down a recent call I had to give tips on how you can approach similar situations.
It's 2019 and we're back with a brand new season. Let's take a look at your goals for 2018 and see what you accomplished. Don't sweat the stuff you didn't accomplish. I also talk about the path into an IT career.
As we close out the year, how have your goals planned out? What is on tap for 2019? I reflect back on 2018 and give you some new podcasts that you can listen to in 2019. Happy New Year everyone!!
You may be struggling to fill out your performance review, your self assessment, or even providing feedback for others. We'll go into what the process looks like and how we recommend approaching this yearly process.
We decided to take the leap and started taking CBD oil. This is our take on it.

About The IT XP
From the publisher's feed
The IT XP is a podcast for IT professionals with real experience in the field.
If you have been in infrastructure, systems administration, or IT leadership for any length of time, you already know the gap between how IT gets talked about and how it actually works. This show lives in that gap.
Hosted by Chuck, with 25 years in IT, The IT XP covers the AI tools actually worth your time, career strategy for experienced practitioners, and honest perspective on what is happening in the field right now. Not the vendor version. Not the hype cycle version. The version from someone who has lived the same career you have.
The central thesis is simple: the more experience you have, the more valuable AI makes you. Every episode is built around that idea.
