Guys (and gals)

Talent Management? Yes my company (MNC) sent us for training. But all we have is attendance certificates

5 years of working experience as a platform based system administrator (Wintel) Im being paid pretty decent 7k++ but still a system support. i felt im not moving anywhere, not vertically, not horizontally. Not even new projects. Been trying to look on the outside world, ppl dont pay a system support worth anything more than that. I felt depressed.

When i reach to this forum, got inspired. Im thinking of PMP. Anyone has any tips of getting that? Pre-requisites? Cost? Location? Help?

No cert only plain degree with a expired CCNA (ignorable)

Seriously im only good with server settings. Wintel Fixing, Recovering, Tweakings, batch scripting and lame stuffs like that. So long it runs under Windows, im quite versatile. Backups / Storage / San config comes no problem to me.

4 yrs old co. -> Doing practically all kind of supports (AD/DNS/GPO/Desktop/Security Hardening/Backup/Storage etc)
1 yrs current co. -> Doing Wintel Production Server supports. (Citrix/VMwares/"lame" windows function like patching, monitoring services and reboot server)

Im at infantry level vms. Touched by surface, cuz we have a VM team and project team practically owns the entire design and functional thing.
As for Citrix - client support level, again, never the overall architecture designed level. - Not interested -

I have enough of being support. Its frustrating trying to fix things that result from poor initial concept design. I wanna dive into the project world as lead or even just senior role in a team that make things happen, in a place where i can do architecture designing, system requirements and specifications drawn out. Indeed, i have very shallow experience and i dont seem to be given a chance to grab hold of that opportunity. Not here, not outside. Nobody giving me a chance. Im a loser. Everyone love my job, but nobody understand my frustration But then i suddenly woke up. No point crying. I have to do something about it. But what?

- I need major help -
