I know the market is bad, but the tone of that job ad is downright
repellant. Do you really want to work for someone like that (unless you
have no other choice), or someone who hired whoever wrote that ad. Sounds
like someone with some issues about the CCIE (perhaps someone who failed
numerous times because it was "not real real world enough.") Also, it shows
some ignorance of certifications, because I am not sure if any Network
Certification out there has much to do with "Best Practices."
