I think its a bit like i don't sign my name Aaron Street Bsc, not because I am not proud of the fact I have a degree, but I don't see it is something special.
On the other hand if I had a doctorate then I most likely would sign my name
Dr Aaron Street. Especial if I was a Doctor of physics working as a department leader at CERN.
I am also of the opinion that certs should stay up for a length of time that is inverse to the difficulty of them. So if some one has there CCNA up for a few months and then replaces it with there CCNA security it shows continued learning. Howevver once its been up 9months or so it starts to look old...- If you can't explain it simply, you don't understand it well enough. Albert Einstein

I personally don't have an office yet since I have no job in IT yet. I do however post my High school diploma and my A+ certification in my room! It makes me feel fulfilled to know that I studied really hard for both of them and did not ****.
I will do the same with the other certs. Instead of putting a hole in them, i frame them in my room. I will do the same with my AA and my N+ when I get them.
To me its all about studying, knowing the material, and seeing self accomplishment. Not doing those stupid brain ****. Brain **** are for losers who don't truly want to get into IT. However my main goal is to be a System Administrator and actually know what I am talking about.
I am glad it takes me 4-5 months to study really hard for a cert. At least that's what has happened with the A+ so far. The others should take about the same amount of time.
Certs maybe just a piece of paper to some, but to the other half its a sense of fulfillment in knowing that you actually took the time to learn the material. I am part of the half that takes the time to learn the material, that is why I proudly hang this stuff on my wall in my room.
