Just checking in....
Heya gang, long time no see!
I was on a certification roll for a long while, and now I've decided that I'm just going to do what interests me, since the IT field can be a volatile thing. It'd been several months since I logged in, so I thought I'd stop by.
Mostly I want to fill my brain with linux and security now.
Anyway, hope all of you are underworked, overpaid, and there is a quake server next to each of your desks.

I do not have a psychiatrist and I do not want one, for the simple reason that if he listened to me long enough, he might become disturbed.

I had that same feeling for 2005 & 2006 after being forced to do the CCEA at the end of 2004. Now that I am back into the exams and studying, I feel very behind. I would suggest taking 1 or 2 exams a year just to keep up on things.Andy

Absolutely. I plan on taking a few just because I'm interested in them.
If it isn't retarded, the new Convergence+ actually interests me as well, since we'll see a TON of growth in that regard coming up.
As a fellow martial artist Andy, my career path will probably end up being as a kung-fu instructor, but not only do I require much more training on the martial end (no 2 year black belts on this one!) but also the business end. We shall see!
Still no reason not to keep up though, since I really do love IT.I do not have a psychiatrist and I do not want one, for the simple reason that if he listened to me long enough, he might become disturbed.

Hey skully, welcome back!
Sounds like a healthy decision. I've dediced the same thing a long time ago and one of the things I noticed is that I don't take exams as often as I used to, because something else starts interesting me before I'm fully ready.skully93 wrote:and now I've decided that I'm just going to do what interests me -

Skully, I was looking through the CCNA technotes thread and the very last post in there was you praising the technotes and saying you were going for your NA in 2 months. I noted the post was in 2005...um...
Did you pass?
