Job seeking

Man, I tell ya, I've been having the HARDEST time finding a job at my level. I keep getting rejected by boomer fucking losers and it really is infuriating. I have 20 years experience in tech and these fuckers tell me, "you don't have enough management experience." meanwhile their resume is 15 years as literal help desk from 1985-2000 and they have a communications degree and have done nothing else.

Or just straight out of jr college in 1990 working the same job for 30 years literally making it to director of IT yet NEVER doing any actual IT work themsleves EVER!!!!! NOT ONE GOD DAMN TIME. And they tell me I don't have experience to work under them, meanwhile they literally don't know the difference between firewall and router and the possibility that they can both be the same device.

It is insane and demoralizing to witness firsthand how boomers hold the reins of power while also being completely incompetent at the same time.

Let's just say I got denied from some DIPSHIT who went to college for ONE fucking year 1994-1995 for undergrad... started as an auditor, went to retail territory manager(1997), to IT Manager to director of IT.... And tells doesn't even call me back AT ALL... I have a PMP, az-900/sc-900 azure certs, CISSP, TOGAF, ITIL on their way and going to start an MBA in Cyber in October
... Not good enough to even talk to about a it manager job..

I've applied to probabably 500+ I don't even know 1000+ jobs since July 2022... It's really bad out there guys.
