Last words about this topic:

I have the solution for all of your problems.

Find yourself a partner with the same interests :) I'm studying with my
boyfriend for the certifications and we buy ourself a lab, we never had a
discussion about the money.

We just have to buy one set of books and also do different courses :)
And if we both pass the exam we go to a movie or to a restaurant because we
spare some money.

Just me 2 cents,

Paula

So is that how people without experience do it? Just keep failing the ccie
written exam until you've memorized all the questions or get lucky?

You must be single, or rich, or both. My wife has a fit when I spent $125 on
a exam I am well prepared for, let alone spend $300 on the written. And my
employer reimburses for the exam.

I guess now I know why my employer will only pay for an exam twice.

Try picking up a book and learning something, then you could pass the exam
on the first try.

I have the same situation.  She doesn't like that I have to shell out the
money first even though I get re-imbursed.  She thinks my money is HER
money and has nothing to do with the company.  I just passed MCSE/SD and
even though it was free, I felt her pain.  Should do the CCIE Sec lab

heheh...you now know the difference between dating and marriage! Where I
work, we have a trade agreement with a testing facility, so I get cisco
boots and tests for free. Not only do I not have to pay first then get
reimbursed. But even though I'm missing work, I still get my 40 hours
paycheck when I'm at the boot. Sounds like a win/win situation, right?
Wrong, my wife complains because I have to sign an agreement that says I
won't get the cert and then quit. She think they should shell out 10k for it
all and that I should just be able to leave the next day.

Dating and married ? :)

I have been dating for 11 years now, yes .. with the same girl :)
Would seem like a marriage dont you think ?

BUt i guess it's the same everywhere, that you have to sign a paper that you
don't leave after getting a certificate. They mostly wanna kaap you a year
or more, depends on the contract. Leave within that period off time ? Bring
out the cash and start paying for the cost they had for putting you through
certification.

She's obsessed with money. My wife is also psychic. I was out to lunch a
few weeks back at a sandwich shop with a bunch of guys from the office.
I had just sat down to eat and my wife calls on the cell phone and
started yelling at me for spending money at lunch. I hadn't even begun
to eat my sandwich.

My wife also doesn't like to front money for my employer, they should
prepay for an exam (or other expenses) on the company credit card. I
really don't mind. I've been in worse situations. At a previous job I
traveled A LOT, and it took forever to get my employer to cut an expense
check. Fortunately  my current employer pays expenses on time.

Hi Tim,

Actually I'm single =) . My employer, paid the first attemp, but after
that I have to pay for every failed exam. He will reimburses the last one,
when I pass.

My girlfriend has started to complain about the expenses, so I think I
sould consider it a bigger issue than troubleshooting FDDI  je

I passed the CCNA, CCNP (Foundation + Troubleshooting) at the first
attemp, but, man, this is a diferent kind of animal.

I believe that the core of discussion should be: some people are much more
intersted to get the certification instead to learn to get experience and
increase the skills.

They went to a "bootcamp" pay $7000 to get CCNP in 11 days or 11000 for CCIE
in 15 days.Do believe that they can learn enough to be a CCIE in 15 days? I
don't think so. It's sad.

There was(fortunatily) a "bootcamp" CCNP guy on my team that uses a web
browser to check DNS resolution. He doesn't know about "nslookup" and have
no idea how to configure OSPF,BGP,Frame Relay,etc. I hope that some day
Cisco implements a new exam methodology to check the real candidate
knowledge. But is geting better the exams 640-603, 605 and 606 are much
better than prior 640-50x. But I hope that Cisco do the same to 350-001.

I have implemented a pre-selection test on my company to prevent against the
"certification guys" .

Yeah I hear you brother. Our company reimburses successful tests and I've
just bombed MPLS twice. Every time I bomb, the wife gets to go on a
shopping
spree worth $AUD190 to balance the equation. Certainly the best incentive
to
pass I ever had!

Larry,

I have the same situation.  She doesn't like that I have to shell out the
money first even though I get re-imbursed.  She thinks my money is HER
money
and has nothing to do with the company.  I just passed MCSE/SD and even
though it was free, I felt her pain.  Should do the CCIE Sec lab sometime
in
the Winter 03 but I won't say anything to her out of fear
:-)

Any one else out there have test fee and spouse problems?

I don't think the boot's about learning the science, though. I understand
the science, but I wanted to know what specific things that I would need to
work on for the test. I think boots have their place. I found, however, that
if I didn't understand the science, I wouldn't have passed the tests with or
without the boot. Cisco is very good at constructing their tests in a way
that doesn't test trivia, but rather tests your ability to apply the
knowledge to real situations. Well, almost real, anway.

I have been dating for 11 years now, yes .. with the same girl :)
Would seem like a marriage dont you think ?

BUt i guess it's the same everywhere, that you have to sign a paper that you
don't leave after getting a certificate. They mostly wanna kaap you a year
or more, depends on the contract. Leave within that period off time ? Bring
out the cash and start paying for the cost they had for putting you through
certification.

heheh...you now know the difference between dating and marriage! Where I
work, we have a trade agreement with a testing facility, so I get cisco
boots and tests for free. Not only do I not have to pay first then get
reimbursed. But even though I'm missing work, I still get my 40 hours
paycheck when I'm at the boot. Sounds like a win/win situation, right?
Wrong, my wife complains because I have to sign an agreement that says I
won't get the cert and then quit. She think they should shell out 10k for it
all and that I should just be able to leave the next day.

really don't mind. I've been in worse situations. At a previous job I
traveled A LOT, and it took forever to get my employer to cut an expense
check. Fortunatelymy current employer pays expenses on time.

I can't remeber the last time I got to play golf. With carpal tunnel and
work and sleep and studying theres not much time for golf. I though I was
going to play golf on vacation a few months ago. Beutiful course in the
caribbean, even saved my lunch money for a whole week so I could play a
round, but my wife wanted me to spend time with her instead. I did offer to
let her caddy for me... oh well that's another story.

Re: CCIE written "revised" [7:53972]

2002-09-25 Thread Theodore Stout

You are right about this John!

When my wife was my girlfriend, she never complained about Cert testing or 
buying equipment.  I was making $70,000 and could not afford to get 
married yet.
When my wife was my fiancee, she started to complain about the certs.  I 
worked 2 part time jobs in addition to my full time job to pay for lab 
equipment, books, airplane tickets, a PIX 515 and 2621, both used.  I was 
making $85,000 and hated my job came home at 10 pm-did weekends too.

I passed the CSS1, CCNP, and CISSP.  Wage is now $120,000 and I am the #1 
engineer in my company working on wireless network design, policies, and 
security.  I am relaxed and come home at 7 pm no weekends and I pay for 
everything.

My wife now fights with me when I want to buy aironet access points and 
cards.  I have lost this fight totally.  She has nearly stopped my Amazon 
buying, although she doesn't know about the $1000 I just did :-), If I 
even mention that I am taking a Cisco test, forget love for a week.  I 
figure since I will have to fly to Belgium for the CCIE security, no love 
for a month.   And get this, if I hadn't invested my money like I did, 
Marriage would have been impossible financially.  Now she wants to quit 
her job and have a kid yet she is stopping me from investing in IT with 
training/books/devices...etc and she thinks I should be able to earn 
$150-200,000 a year within 3 years!  (Holy Delusions of Grandeur!)  I have 
no idea how I am going to finance next years' changes.  How can I possibly 
make more money without investing in my education be it cert or not cert? 
Certs are really not that important, I need all the training I can get. 
Education is necessary to supplement on the job experiences.

What is it with these people  If only I could be a Cisco Certified 
Wife Troubleshooter! 

A call center.

Something is wrong with my woman.
What is it?
She is not functioning normally!
When did this start happening?
It started back in March.
What happened back then?
Nothing.
Come on!  What changes happened then?
We got married.
Volia!  You no longer have the right specs for your woman. 
But she was functioning properly for so many years.  Everything was okay.
Sorry, but when you upgrade from Girlfriend 5.0 to Wife 1.0, your entire 
network must change.
What this was not written in the book nor was it on the home page.
Ha ha, it's a gotcha!   Welcome to Marriage!

heheh...you now know the difference between dating and marriage! Where I
work, we have a trade agreement with a testing facility, so I get cisco
boots and tests for free. Not only do I not have to pay first then get
reimbursed. But even though I'm missing work, I still get my 40 hours
paycheck when I'm at the boot. Sounds like a win/win situation, right?
Wrong, my wife complains because I have to sign an agreement that says I
won't get the cert and then quit. She think they should shell out 10k for 
it
all and that I should just be able to leave the next day.

Guys, 

If you do suffer from CTS, a good exercise and also cheap I might add, is
taking two elastic bands, relatively 'tough' and putting them around your
fingers and thumbs and then using your fingers to expand the elastic bands.
Do this when you have nothing to 'do' in front of the monitor, and you'll
help alleviate if not reduce the effects of CTS. 

I started doing this, and I can now open a packet of sweets without cringing
in pain!

Well actually she took me. She's a travel agent and went on a business
trip.

round, but my wife wanted me to spend time with her instead. I did offer to
let her caddy for me... oh well that's another story.

She's obsessed with money. My wife is also psychic. I was out to lunch a
few weeks back at a sandwich shop with a bunch of guys from the office.
I had just sat down to eat and my wife calls on the cell phone and
started yelling at me for spending money at lunch. I hadn't even begun
to eat my sandwich.

My wife also doesn't like to front money for my employer, they should
prepay for an exam (or other expenses) on the company credit card. I
really don't mind. I've been in worse situations. At a previous job I
traveled A LOT, and it took forever to get my employ

er to cut an expense
check. Fortunately my current employer pays expenses on time.

if the employer re-imburses you, whats the issue with your wife?

You must be single, or rich, or both. My wife has a fit when I spent


$125 on


a exam I am well prepared for, let alone spend $300 on the written. And


my


employer reimburses for the exam.

I guess now I know why my employer will only pay for an exam twice.

Try picking up a book and learning something, then you could pass the


exam


on the first try.

RE: CCIE written "revised" [7:53972]

2002-10-11 Thread P de Nie

Hi all,

Last words about this topic:

I have the solution for all of your problems.

Find yourself a partner with the same interests :) I'm studying with my
boyfriend for the certifications and we buy ourself a lab, we never had a
discussion about the money.

We just have to buy one set of books and also do different courses :)
And if we both pass the exam we go to a movie or to a restaurant because we
spare some money.

Just me 2 cents,

Paula
