I’m applying for sysadmin type jobs and feel a lack of degree is holding me back. Should I simply lie? Can’t see most employers actually checking on a degree I would have earned 30+ years ago.

    Or if you’re looking to fluff experience, pick a company that closed down. Who they gonna call, the Ghostbusters?

      4 of my previous employers have either gone bankrupt or represent a different agency and I feel like if someone looked over my resume right now they would automatically assume I was lying. Or cursed.

          Well at least I can charge people money to weaponize my curse. Any enemies you want me to stand around and curse?
