Finished compsci but interned as a computer technician and there I thrived. Instead of constantly having to keep up to date on programming: subscribing to journals, attending seminars and conferences, networking with other programmers, and of course (re)studying shit to get certified.
That sounds like my time as a computer technician and then a network tech. Always chasing the next cert to stand out from the next tech. Once I switched to compsci I’ve never been pitched any certifications.
