I graduated with an MIS degree and
have 1 year of work experience. The
role I'm in involves managing/working on client projects, testing any changes made to our
system, and working with customer
service on resolving any escalations. The role isn’t interesting or challenging.
I’ve been thinking about switching to a consulting role but I’m not sure if I qualify or where to begin. Any advice?

It sounds like you're in a after managed service role for a system. I'd look into the implementation side of the same system, that'd be the easiest transition probably.

Here’s how to withdraw your funds from FTX

Hedge Withdrawals

Open a position on FTX and an opposing position on another exchange (perhaps Binance for the irony) for the same financial exposure. If the position on FTX profits, keep trading. As the position on FTX experiences losses, the opposing position on the other exchange profits. Keep it up until you’ve depleted the funds on account at FTX the close your opposing position. You’ve successfully withdrawn funds using a hedge. You’re welcome.
