PC Education audio books

toms94z71

So where I work right now has terrible cell service so streaming isn't a choice, so I was wondering if anyone has any good suggestions on audio books I can download to listen too while at work, eventually I want to get several certifications and get out of where I am working now, I already have a book on a+ certification and realize I knew 95 percent of what was in the book already so passing that certification test should be easy for me. I am looking for things a little more in depth. Thanks in advance.

I was going to highlight all the grammar errors in you post and then suggest an audiobook on written communication. As I went through the second line I began to realize that this venture is too great! I will instead recommend World War Z, Five People You Meet in Heaven, and Knock Me off My Feet. 

 

As far as programming goes I'd suggest just using what you've learned. Make a game or program as most employers want to see "practical" knowledge. A friend of mine got a job at his first server company with a program that could automatically install Windows Vista, drivers, and set up networks. This was back when XP was ripe and Vista had just come out.

I really don't bother proof reading on forum posts, especially when I have a terrible head cold like I do right now. I can write grammatically correct when it is really important. Linux is something I really want to master in the future personally. Yes, I will take your advice on practical knowledge as well as I have been in management for years in a few different companies and someone demonstrating the skills they claimed to have was always a big plus in the interview process.
