That's wonderful!

What's it mean?

mrattis October 11 2010, 19:14:42 UTC

not much really. That I know how to crack Wep on wireless networks, and I know how to brute force wpa.

So you're licensed to crack and brutalize. A card-carrying Wep-cracker? A brutish WPA enforcer?

I like it!

Just a card (Certificate really) that says I know how to do those things. Not that I'm allowed to.

Wonderful! Will this improve your job chances? *crosses fingers, hoping*

Several months ago, I was called for a job to design wireless networks. I have experience in that regards. However I never got a call back. Having this cert may have helped then. However now, I don't know if it will help me get a job or not.

There is not a lot of call in the area for people to run around and break into wireless networks. The material covered in the course that went with the cert was a little too narrow and rather old.

But on the same token. Every little bit helps I guess.

True.

I just sent you a message on Facebook, should go to your email. Spouse's company is hiring. You look all self-taught out of desperation in a lousy job so send your resume to Spouse. See if they have a place for you.

Mostly self taught over all. Not so much out of desperation. Just seems like that now.

I've actually been discourage at the place I'm at now, not to continue my skill growth. But I've had a plan in place for the last few years. Just doesn't move much. (burnt out on computers again)

Sent you a reply on facebook.
