I actually did study for the CCNA and was primed to certify. I decided not to go that route and found myself in a Java class a couple years later. I now don’t use either of those things.

Everybody giving all these first year engineering books. Real engineers cry when they’re doing their CCNA certification. Image

That isn’t real engineering, sorry.

Do your CCIE and come back to me.
And for what it’s worth, I did my BSc.Eng in Electrical too.

You’re not much of an engineer if you can’t see how fallacious your argument is.
Memorizing endless arcane trivia that changes every six months is a parlor trick, not engineering.
The same way memorizing all the SCPI commands of your oscilloscope doesn’t make you an engineer.

That’s actually one of the reasons I didn’t like it. It focuses almost entirely on Cisco router/switch/whatever else setup and gives only minimal background on the actual theory behind networking. That wouldn’t be so bad if this wasn’t the extent of my engineering undergrad experience with networking. We didn’t even technically get the certification because apparently netacad doesn’t count despite being the same content

Why are you policing people on the internet?

But posting shit like this does make you a twat.
