Totally new to Reddit. Tried to post 2 comments and I get "You are doing that too much". What? Posting to a FORUM SITE?
That has to be the dumbest thing ever implemented. What a joke!!
Rant over.

Reddit is ridiculous. It's hard to follow for conversations, and the posting is terrible. It's just the new Yahoo! Answers.

I never use reddit for IT related stuff. Only games.

There isn't even a place for IT stuff on Reddit. There is the sysadmin subreddit, but that's pretty clearly just a game too.

How valuable is an exchange cert going to be generally with everyone moving to hosted solutions?

It is hard to follow!! I figured it would be a cool place to go, but I guess I was wrong.

Not terribly imo. If you're interested in working for the military you might be able to find an Exchange job, but they're getting fewer and further between. I had a SysAdmin job up that was mostly Linux and macOS, and at least half of the applicants were Exchange admins.

That is my train of thought as well. I'm trying to determine an educational path currently

If recent experience is any indication, Linux admins are currently in very short supply in the SMB market.

Have you done calculus? As time T increases, the value (V) of Exchange approaches zero.

Education is always about preparing the future and avoiding the past. Exchange is a bit of history. Sure, a bit that will last for a decade or more, but so will the surplus of existing, trained, experienced Exchange admins desperate for work.

And the SME market. And the hosting market. And the enterprise market.

Ugh! Made the mistake of putting an install directory in a place where regular users can get to it. What do they do? Yup...install it. Nice going, morons!

If that is the case I shouldn't study for the job I have but instead should be educating to make myself as marketable as possible. Do you agree that Linux would be the correct path?

If you stand too close to a shit flinging monkey, you get monkey shit on you. But do you blame the monkey for throwing poo? Or is it your fault for standing too close to the monkey?

Studying is like dressing. Dress for the job you want, not the job that you have.

You can just not feed the monkey so he won't throw poo at you anymore and still be close LOL
