    I can’t tell if there’s a pun that’s going over my tired head (I just walloped myself with an early spring bike ride while recovering from a cold) but IT like any career is pretty easy to break into. Go to school and get a degree (I found a 2 year networking degree was sufficient to put myself on a very nice career trajectory. I’ve already hit mid-high level in my career based off only existing less than a decade of work experience, my technical knowledge and my 2 year degree) then start applying to jobs as you get close to graduating. You’ll probably start in the help desk, then after a couple of years or so of that you can start applying to more administrative roles, such as maybe an admin role at a MSP or maybe you’ll get lucky and snag an internal jr admin role somewhere to get started out, then you can further specialize from there if you wish, but once you get a job that has “admin” in the title and doesn’t crush your soul you’re already at a good point to coast if you so wish
