Great, great advice. thanks for that!
I'm really looking forward to starting.
Of course now I'm getting cynics telling me to avoid the entire field
because it sucks, no upward mobility, etc.
But I know from experience that once I decide and apply myself, i
excel. So I don't consider myself average when it comes to learning
and moving forward.
I do, however, consider myself to totally suck at typing. Something
I've meant to address for, oh, I don't know, 30 years. :)
This may be a good time to buy Mavis Beacon.
