I have never had an employer pay for training, its all been done in my own time and at my own expense. However, I am feeling a bit disillusioned, as I never seem to be able to get myself in a good position where I can use the extra certs I get to place myself into the post I most desire, and totally enjoy what I do. I am always missing something people want, I train up, then its something else and now I feel as though its a constant up hill struggle and I'm not getting the results I'm after.

Not wishing to end on a negative note, I will say that despite not being where I (ideally) want to be, keeping trained up has so far put me in a position to pay the bills and put some money away for lifes little emergencies so for that I am very grateful.
