Ha, I'm no mechanic but that stuff is just like PCs when it comes to cooling. Can almost guarantee my wife's vehicle suffers from an engine compartment and condenser too small issue so it's getting heat soaked as well.
Microsoft Support is just a lucky dip. There are really knowledgeable engineers but it's a crapshoot if you'll get one. If you have a Microsoft account manager they can help get you in touch with more senior teams easier.
We do, and we were with the Sev-A team.
I'm not surprised, actually. You cut yourself too short, mate.
I did the same with Sec+, and said screw it and just went in to do it. Shy of passing by 2 points only because there's a lot of crap in there that doesn't even pertain to my field.
You know, my mom has spent my entire life telling me the same thing...
Yeah I feel you. I do find a lot of the exam stuff is just not important stuff and it's basically testing your memory. Why am I being tested on things that you can check documentation for very quickly ? and even if in real life you did remember, if you were deploying important infrastructure, you would double check the documentation anyway. Also some of the questions I had today dealt with the absolute minutia of Azure details that I really rolled my eyes at. I work with very experienced Azure consultants daily and they definitely no not hold in their head these pedantic details and recall them verbatim whenever you ask, they google it like any other sane human being.
I think what made my test worse being Comptia is that they have questions with answers that are actually verifiably wrong. I did the 401, and when I was studying for the 501 version I noticed more obviously wrong answers to questions and said fuck it.
