OMG I SAID ULTIMATELY SO MANY TIMES IN THE FIRST 4 MINUTES IM SORRY
8 times in total
@@meowhib take a shot of water each time i say it
Ultimately, still enjoying the videos!
@@omvedasxlcynelx8609 LOVE YOU
Haha we still love you! Straight fire advice. At my current help desk Gig, they want me to have more server experience before I pivot to system admin, so they're hiring from the outside unfortunately. Using this experience to keep shadowing my admin so I can put more on my resume and apply elsewhere. 2 months later they're struggling to find anyone to fill the role because it's 2nd shift.. same hours I work. Watching your videos keep me positive, tho!
This is what people don't understand. We are 100% in control of what we do. At one point, one of my managers told me that I wasn't ready, when she wasn't even pay attention of what I was learning.
This is crucial info. You're one of my go-to UA-camrs. Congrats on the promo!
I love the tip concerning journaling! I jot down what I’m doing weekly to remind myself of the progress I’m making as a newbie. Really helps with imposter syndrome.
Congrats again on the promo, well deserved!
I love this video! Thank you! I recently left a helpdesk position because I realized they weren’t really trying to promote employees in a timely manner. Originally they instated that going through the tiers would be automatic but several months in they stated that promotion is based solely on metrics and not an automatic escalation process. I didn’t want to waste time so I resigned.
Channel is mooooving ⬆ Love to see it.
Hey what's up GPS! Thanks 4 another great advice video! I've learned that you have to be fearless but cautious when it comes to your work/life balance. Paying your bills is essential but the older I get, the more I see that happiness with your work is super critical and should not be compromised. I really appreciate all that you do for us! And you have two fur babies now! I love the attack move from the desk your one kitty made on the other at the 3:59 min mark! As usual, be well, be safe and Peace & Blessings!
I feel this, I've been a system admin for far longer than I wish to admit. A lot of that is because I constantly chase some sort of "ooo shiny" thing that isn't relevant to my career. Great advice here.
What's wrong with being a sysadmin?
Excellent advice. It served as a good reminder that I'd been slacking on my career journey, and it was also good to take a step back and reflect on all these things. Thank you.
Great video. My journey is very similar to yours including timescales on promotions. In the early stages of your career, my best advice to people is if no one questions your ability to get the job done, you’re probably ready to make your next move
Ah, its good to see my question from the livestream made into a video! Nice content!
Congrats on your promotion GPS! 🎉
Loooooooove your content! Promotions and climbing the corporate ladder is WORK! It can be done, but I can honestly say it's work I've underestimated in the past. You have to be more than just likable!
Keep this content coming. It’s so pure, not scripted and coming from a real place.
Congratulations on the promo, and keep creating these insightful videos!
Those are some really good advice Thanks GPS! Definitely gone start making a bank of all my achievements.
Thanks for the great info. it was awesome seeing you live at ""Microsoft Build: AI Day" in Joburg
Thanks for articulating your advice in a way anyone can benefit from it
Thank you for sharing really helpful career tips.
Absolutely. I have been in IT since 1999.. I have done it all. The key to success in anything we do is dedication and hard work. No pain no gain. Congrats on your success and for uplifting others.
I had to rewind the one cat getting the high ground before attacking the other
They really go WWE on eachother lol
Wow that hit home for me cause I was in the same position at my first job, they didn’t wanna give me a better opportunity and ended up leaving and right when I was about to leave they were offering a better opportunity, in the end it all plays out for the better
Thanks you, great gems 💎!
Congrats! 🎉

hahahahahahhaha yeah, I deserve that
Great Advice
Keep trying to help entry - junior IT job seekers.
I think these people need the most help nowadays!
Good video! I know this video is more about how you got promoted but I think another reason is because your manager or whoever hired you LIKES you! I don't think people will get promoted if management does not like them. Just my two cents....
Yeah, but I feel like I earned that. They didn't necessarily like me from the start, I worked towards that. I've had over 10 managers by now, hard to say I got promoted each time just because they liked me.
Whats that lego set in the back there
Re salary
2 questions
1) Is that base or with bonuses ,etc. Obv if its violating a nda , no worries.
2) i know you have no current financial need to, but are you still doing side projects for pay/fun/growth. Ie new tech or ppl that just know you can get it done and seek you out.
1. which figure are you talking about?
2. Yes, building one now. I also make income from youtube, diagrams, and investing.
@@MadeByGPS 1 - figure i was reffering to was your total salary earned from your 9-5 only. Also do you feel you Could find something comparable if you had to leave MS or youd take a huge hit (not lifestyle, just paycheck).
@@shiloh4184 give me the timestamp of the figure you are referring to please.
and yes, I could find something comparable. I've had offers from smaller companies for more than what I make now.

I got in at the 2nd step but I kinda feel like I missed out on the experience
Hi GPS, just wanted to know the organisations u worked for the customers u worked with are they banks, insurance companies or just smaller business? Thank u so much for the content
How can we connect with you on Linkedin?
Is a sys admin role entry level?
I like your advice for one on ones.
Someone Hire me: I promise I am amazing 🥺 Job Market is crazy rn Lol
Good Stuff..GPS...as usual...
Thanks for sharing! You rock! 🫡
Thank you for sharing your advice ❤.
I always smile when I see honest and hard-working people like you succeed, well-done! It means that at least some things in this world are right)
Your videos and project ideas have been very helpful, I'm looking forward for more content on your channel and to see how you career progresses in the future.
I have a question, I will be starting a new job in a few weeks, the position title is different, but from description of responsibilities I understand it to be more of a Azure Cloud Administrator role - managing cloud resources, optimize costs and creating reports, that kind of stuff. I agreed to the offer since the salary is very attractive for me, but now I feel like I am not competent enough for the job, and it bothers me a bit. Sure, I have experience working with cloud as a web developer, but I know that I still need to learn a lot about the Azure, in terms of networking, access management, security, etc.
So my question is have you ever felt that you don't have enough qualification or competence for the job, and if yes, how you handle it?
Hard work pays off!
You inspire me! I have been with my current company for almost 8 years(got stuck). I have been upskilling for the last 6 months. Hopefully I pass the Final/Technical Interview and be promoted/get a better job. Thanks!
