Skipped out on 2k18 & stuck with 17, but gameplay wise, how big of a jump is it from 2k17 to 2k19?

Recently joined an MSP (have IT experience, but never worked with msp's before) as a sys engineer. Was promised I'd be working on a lot of project work & server management, be eligible for pay raises after x amount of days, working both in-house and on-site, etc etc.

Almost 4 months later, the position is more akin to glorified help desk. Haven't even sniffed project work or on-site tasks. Spoke with a colleague regarding the slow start and they mentioned potential "probation" periods for some new hires, so that may be the case (which I'd be fine with if a) that was ever established to me formally and b) if the other 2-3 IT hires were given the same the same treatment, as they are doing

During the Golden Age Arc, what was the general consensus of the story, by the fans? During the Black Swordsman Arc, it was obvious that something bad went down between Guts & Griffith, but during the GA arc, was there an overbearing sense of "I wonder if the next issue is the one where shit hits the fan" or "Can we hurry this up and get back to the present time"?

Also, did knowing that things will eventually come to a terrible end kill some of the anticipation during the Golden Age Arc, at the time?

I posted this in another Eugene-specific thread, but just wanted to throw this out there in-regards to Eugene coming back to Alexandria.

The consensus seems to be that "Eugene will fall in line with whoever protects him. As soon as the tide turns, he'll support the gang again." But knowing this, why would Rick & gang even take him back, assuming he jumps ship again? Rick already has the template to make bullets, what rationale would he have to accept someone who's a traitor, a known liar, and brings no value other than cowardice?

When the next "Big Bad" shows up, how could Rick & gang possibly trust Eugene going forward?

Just trying to get a grasp on what my GS Ranking is. I have a Bachelor's degree in Information Technology and around 6 years of relevant experience (3 in Tech Support & Help Desk, a little over 3 years as a System Administrator, not involved in the military).

Am I capped at GS-7 or lower since I do not have a Master's or can experience make up for lack thereof?
