Hi,
Thanks, I guess they'd have justifiable grounds if the employer paid for the
employee getting the training.
I would not be a happy camper if that happened to me because I've funded it
all. I'm working on my second now. I have to say between, cisco books,
equipment, practice labs, boot camps, training classes, rack time, travel
expenses, lab attempts... I think I've spent close to $20,000. Not to
mention all of the weekends we spend in side and the time that we're away
from friends and family.
Although I think it's going to be a great opportunity. They have a voice lab
for the CCIE, Woo Hoo! And the other 4 CCIE's on staff are really bright. I
think I could learn a lot. I'm not ashamed to say I think I'm a green in
some areas.
I'm just happy I can finally put all of this work and effort towards a job
that will help me develop further. There's nothing like real life
experience.
Have a good one!
Joe
