Scott & all,
What Josh ran into we have alot of at my place of work. They
have been around since the dawn of man and I believe are mentioned in Mel
Brooks film History of the World Part I.
This is known as the bullshit artist and, unlike the CCIEs, there is no
shortage of them. To my
taste there are a surplus but thank god for anyone on this list they should
be very easy to spot.
I ran into one 3 or 4 years back of all places at the route 70 flea market
in Dover Twp. NJ. and this one even had the gall to give me his card but,
alas, like the 1 on Josh's story he had a problem with
the number At the time I was going to the local Cisco field office in
Mt.Laurel NJ to practice labs and I gave it to 1 of the real CCIEs and they
dealt with it through whatever means they do!
