This right here. Every time I bring this up, some Lemmy person starts licking the corporate boot.
You're here to provide a service and get paid. Jumping jobs is the fastest way to increasing your salary. Your first job is to gain experience. The next jobs is supposed to get you paid.
But even after you get a entry level job, I see a lot of jr techs stop learning. Yes, helping someone with their mouse isn't glamorous. Yes, resetting email passwords isn't what you took the test for. And no, chances are your job will not let you climb the ladder because you're doing so well fixing basic end-user BS.
Don't ever stop learning on your free time and be prepared to jump to hit the higher levels of salary.
Totally right.
