No idea if those skills would be transferable. I was on the small to mid sized biz side. Never worked for a provider or anything. Mainly managing, installing and configuring systems.

Once you understand the basics of telephony it’s pretty easy. It’s getting more complex now since it’s all ip/sip based but because that’s a skill that is lacking because everyone who does know that wants to be a network or security guy, not the phone guy/gal.

If you are working it now. Figure out who’s doing your phones and express interest in learning. It’s how everyone I know got into it.

You don’t need to work with the big guys.

Small businesses, managed service, utilities, hospitals all need telecom guys. Ive been out of telecom for years and I still have recruiters occasionally reaching out to me.

If you really want IT. Then telecom

Most people in telecom are old and are analog phone people, they don’t know ip/sip and don’t want to learn.

It’s basically a small networking job that you never get calls on nights and weekends about and if you do it’s a system you can reboot remotely. If it’s not the system it’s a switch and its someone else’s job.

Yeah, that’s and that’s “reputable company” … Just wait until it’s RECOMBAXCKS or whatever hey will sell on amazing n.

I mean we see their cheap shitty batteries catching on fire in bikes, hoverboards, phones, laptops… Can you imagine their cars going up in flames?

So would this be a good alternative to Synology photos?

They should really explain what it is for those of us that don’t know

Yeah housing gains do nothing for you if you want to stay in the same area.

Theoretically you’ll have more equity so you can take out loans, but with high interest rates you’ll likely avoid that… and your property taxes will eventually go up since your home value has gone up.

Hate the fact that my house has gained so much.

This book gets a lot of shit, probably deservedly so, but I enjoyed the story, but skip over the monologue.

Every place I’ve ever worked has had a bobafet.

So let the french kids who are not muslim, wear these robes and see what happens.

No offense but I never once went to a subreddit and thought that the mod might be qualified, except r/science.

So if I accidentally stumbled on canning, I wouldn’t have assumed that anything there was safe to do without reading the comments first to make sure the op wasn’t a c bomb.

Then what’s the big deal? No hats.

Lemmy loves nuclear power and they will shove it down your throat.

I’ve always used y’all when greeting strangers because of this very reason.

I worry about what defines a traffic light? Is it just the light or does the pole it’s on count?

My parents forced me to learn in case I ever needed it.

I’d buy one again in a heartbeat if I could. Love the fact that it was easy AF to rock myself out of snow banks

Yup. Finally cleared out my homebrewing setup.

It was just too damn time consuming.

Yup.

What the fuck is the point of everyone mentions that it was “formerly twitter”.
