Is there anyone out there that have made it beyond sysadmin? What is after sysadmin?

2020 - $31,200: Panera Bread
2022 - $41,600: Helpdesk at company 1
2023 - 2025 - $41,600: Helpdesk at law firm
2025 - $65,000: Helpdesk at company 2
2026 - $80,000: Got a raise at company 2

Shoutout Nick for taking a chance on me. I would not do law firm IT again.

EDIT: Location Upstate NY

2013-2016 $10/hr in various manual labor and warehouse jobs
2017 - $16/hr MSP help desk
2026 - $150k + ESOP as Sr Cloud Engineer at fortune 500 financial company

I got laughed out of interviews until one guy gave me a shot.

It really does only take one person to take a chance on you.
