Could you mentor a security guard breaking into cloud engineering?
Clinton, a security guard, is retraining for cloud engineering and is looking for a mentor for monthly calls over six months.

I have worked as a security guard for 11 years, and I'm 37. After my children starting school, I decided to move into cloud engineering, and I have completed a part-time diploma.
What I'm missing is someone who has walked this path: feedback on my capstone project, a realistic view of the job market in Gauteng, and a sounding board when things feel overwhelming.
I'm hoping for one 45-minute video call a month for six months, plus the occasional email question. I'll bring specific questions and I won't waste your time.
All I can offer back is my thanks, and I'll mentor someone else once I'm settled.
You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.

Keep going, Clinton. Shared this with my family. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected.
Hope the shop reopens soon. I have a 14 year old who wants to send good wishes too.

Stay strong. This could happen to any of us. My mother had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. Greetings from Dwarka.
Wishing you the best, Clinton. Hope you get there. My father had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. God bless.
