LMAO I know a whole bunch of people who don't know a subnet mask from a hole in their ass and they're doing just fine in their IT careers. You are overestimating the requirements for a great many corporate jobs.
Ya it’s me I’m the guy in IT who is currently confusing a subnet mask for my own ass.
There's a difference between corporate IT and being a computer geek.
I agree that many IT careers are relatively simple support jobs.
They mentioned computer geeks which implies, to me, people who are deep into computers. In that light, if you're struggling with concepts of IP addressing then the more-complicated facets of computers and networks will preclude you from an engineering role.
