If you can't get professional experience with Linux, that is a good time to focus on getting a cert. LinuxAcademy is fairly reasonably priced.

I am essentially the closest thing we have to a linux admin here. I put into production two CentOS 7 servers so far but I'm running around 7 at home on XS. Technically "professional experience" but there is no one here to teach me exactly. I go off of what I read. I'll take a look at LinuxAcademy. Thanks.

Or volunteering. I got loads of awesome experience when I was younger in IT when I set up an entire private K12 school that had no computers (one ancient Mac with no networking, just a printer in the office.) Built their entire network, soup to nuts, on openSuse. Servers, storage, backup, desktops, PBX you name it. It was awesome experience.

When you're jobless, or super flexible part time worker, this type of thing might be possible, as a 30 something with a full time job, that's near impossible because the School is going to need this done quickly... plus followup support, granted you might not provide that.

Especially considering I have 3 hours of commuting every day minimum. I-195 E is a nightmare at 5:00 PM. It definitely would be a great learning experience though if it were possible.

You think it's bad driving a car in that, I used to drive a semi in that nightmare. Jersey City is the absolute worst. 55mph road with a city sidewalk beside it, it's a wonder people weren't sucked under trailer tandems on that road, because you're a slow moving road hazard at 55. I've got even more about Jersey City, but I'd rather here about @MattSpeller's fishing.

Yes. New Jersey is a post apocalyptic waste land akin to Mad Max. Confirmed.

I was just at lunch and I caught this. It's a live feed of an African safari. This is pretty cool!!!

It's not terrible. But you can get some decent quality stuff there for ok prices sometimes. I snagged an anniversary present for my wife there last year.

Etsy seems like the cPanel of creativity to me. Everyone should know how to do all of that already, but is my time worth paying someone else to do it?
