Quite some time ago, someone sent me this joke. To this day, it should be funny but it isn’t because it is still true.

What Is a CCIE ?
14th June 2008 By 13 Comments
Originally published at Techtarget when I sent it to them for fun. Reproduced here because I wrote it, and it still seems funny today. Note it is derivative from some joke that was around at the time.
Interestingly, much of the puns on CCIE study topics are forgotten technology as modern CCIE’s no longer study Token Ring, DLSW, Appletalk and other fine technologies.

Describing My Job to ‘Normal People’
17th March 2008 By 7 Comments
I went to dinner with a group of guys on the weekend. (Yeah, I know, I am actually sort of normal sometimes). In one of those awkward moments, I had to describe what I did, I am wondering what you tell people that you do ?
