In late 1990s I was still in high school but the.com bubble still reached us there at a young age. I was put into a tech training course called CIT 1 & CIT 2 it was 4 years of tech and college courses. Everyday for 4 years I had a computer integrated technology class that taught everything from how to deal with users all the way to networking & computer programming. We worked on as400, the school network and teachers computers at 14 years old we were experimenting with OSPF. This "pioneer program" was scrutinized and hailed as a victory by news broadcasters & newspapers we were interviewed by all kinds of people throughout the program looking to do the same in their schools. This was the fast track once we got out of high school we were college trained and ready to go into the workforce. The burst happened right after I got out I actually went from interviewing at Fortune 500 companies to taking a cable pulling job that was local for minimum wage. I ended up with a construction company that builds smart homes and I've been happy there ever since.
