This was so good, I had to post it here, too.

Interesting article in today's Certification Magazine. Separates out the difference between Vapor MCSE and Paper MCSE.

I like these:

You might be a Vapor MCSE:
1. If the receptionist at the test center knows you on a first-name basis because you repeated all your exams four times.
2. If you never bought any study materials or cracked a training book.
3. If you primarily studied the questions and answers on brain dump sites.
4. If you lied to your friends that your dog ate your test simulation disks and you'd like to borrow theirs.
5. If you asked others to help you figure out the answers to questions you missed on your tests.
6. If you got together with your friends after passing your last test and celebrated beating the system.

from "The Paper MCSE Myth", Certification Magazine, March 2001

Talking

The receptionist at my training center is named Gina. I know it, because, well... I hate to even think of how many exams I have taken in the past year
... and I work with her!
