>How did you start learning C++?
I got hired as a developer and the existing code base was in C++

Before you ask, no I didn't fake my way in. The employer was fully aware that I didn't know any C++ before, but they were impressed enough with my technological knowledge that they hired me anyway.

Anyway, favourite C++ books:
Effective C++, More Effective C++, Effective Modern C++, by Scott Meyers

Exceptional C++ and More Exceptional C++ by Herb Sutter

MSDN C++ Language Reference

What kind of technological knowledge did you have?

A master's degree in computer science with specialisation in network programming (and a lot of C programming).

I just can't wrap my head around object oriented coding. Seems like a huge cluster fuck ever time I try to touch it. But I'm a noob anyway.

I started with embedded C

and it was easy to pick up C++ since you can basically program C++ like it's C

Why did you get a masters instead of a bachelors? Would you recommend it?

learncpp.com is good for beginners and even intermediates
