Re: Complacency in the workplace
There are certain situations where holding a job simply to build a resume may be appropriate. It may not be the dream sys admin job you're hunting after, but having that ops role on your resume is a big step towards getting there.

Re: Getting Drained and Tired...
@Grafixx01: I was unemployed for over 1 year. I got laid off 2 weeks after I closed on a house. I am not the first, nor the last. My goal was to move into the new house and fix the existing house up.

Re: CISSP: Self study, bootcamp?
I recently (post April 15) went through a CISSP boot camp with TrainingCamp. My thoughts... The boot camp was a cursory review seminar of the CBK study guide, which needs a lot of revision to eliminate repetition, fluff and content errors (off-the-cuff examples of errors: incorrect definition for non-repudiation; incorrect… -

SSCP Pass!

First, I already have several certs, including CISSP, CISM, and Sec+, and I've worked in IT for a long, long time. But I'm always looking for ways to increase my knowledge and garner CPEs/CEUs/Etc.

CISSP Achieved! Failed 7 times, passed on the 8th!
To all CISSP endeavors; I am long time lurker here on TechExams. Read almost every passed/failed thread on here and if anything, learned almost nothing from them. That's because each and every passed was unique to the individuals and their learning style. If ISC pulled the fail stat, I am certain one of those with high…
