I'm honestly holding back tears right now. My career has been a hell of a journey so far with a ton of twists and turns. Senior network engineer is a title I've been chasing for years at this point. I can't believe it. This is major.

Now I've gotta set my sights on another goal.

That's amazing man. You certainly deserve it from the networking talk we've had here and there over the years.

Your next goal should be to get one of those Cisco certs that makes companies hire you so they can tell clients they have someone with your cert on staff but in reality you don't do anything because everything can be handled by CCNAs so you just play video games all day.

CCIE or something like that.

At least right now, I don't think I want to be in a role where I'm not doing anything and just delegating work to other people. I think my next immediate goal is the Devnet track. I want to get better at coding so I can be great at network automation.

Congrats Cable!

And now to ask the question on everyone's mind.. What will this mean for your political topics and follow-ups?? You being the senior means you have more time to focus on those important things, right??

Jk, congrats again!

LOL, I'll have to see how my work changes. My boss said I had been doing what he would expect of a senior network engineer for a while now, so maybe. I'm sure I'll be getting assigned more complicated things, though.

I don't automate network stuff but some guys at my job do and we use Microsoft Systems Center to do most of it. The manual for the thing is big and scary. There's a lot of powershell involved. Maybe take a look at that stuff.

We're primarly an Ansible/Python/Gitlab/Jenkins shop, so I'll need to get better at all of those things. I've got a few scripts written, but I'd like to get to the point where I'm on par (or can at least keep up with) the guys that are on the network automation team.

That may have been someone else. I've learned a bit from some Network To Code training as well as taking advantage of ChatGPT to get a basic framework for what I want a script to do. My end goal is to get to the point where I can write advanced scripts from scratch without needing reference material, but that's likely at least a few years away.

I very recently started writing awk scripts from memory. Feels good tbh.
