My story time! Shortened tho.. In mid 2010s I was fresh college dropout with little perspective in life but had lots of self-thought skills in general IT field. Worked odd jobs as a student, labor jobs, fixing computers on a side, being jack of all trades but master at none. Then decided to emigrate from my southern European country into NW Europe. Within two weeks I got entry position in major cloud provider, a job I was dreaming to get in a span of 5-10 years, but there I was. 9 years later I am managing couple of said cloud provider facilities, have direct reports under me, and my current life is unimaginable compared to where I was ten years ago. Every single year since I emigrated was substantially better than previous one. There was a promo or at least solid salary increase every 12 months, did some side moves to different teams and eventually navigated to what I am and have at this moment. Imposter syndrome still kicks in from time to time and kicks hard, but that's something I need to live with. Lack of college degree doesn't help a single bit
