ATOT Nef Thread?

I was unaware certification was required for pimping.

You could almost consider them pimps given the money the certification demands.

The application process is a bitch. You have to document 4,500 hours of project management experience. I have that, but I don't know how nit-picky they're going to be.

At another 4000 certifications awarded per month, I'd imagine the money will start to drop off.

The key is that it might be the cheapest and easiest way to get out of the day-to-day IT grind while still maintaining my salary.

Far less risky than an MBA, too. At most, I might be out a couple grand with the PMP. Not so with the MBA.

You have some hatred issues for the AFC, Indy.

Ah ha, the real reason.

Can't you get work to reimburse you for courses and certifications?

I have no problems with the Steelers or the Ravens. As long as they know when to lose to the Patriots. :awe:

My next car really is going to have AWD.

 

[MotF Bane]

Not that I had problems today, and besides, it's braking that tends to be more of an issue. But it was a novelty that I didn't skid around on a couple of the corners.

 

[MotF Bane]

But AWD will make life much easier. So would more ground clearance, but that's a performance characteristic, and a trade I am not interested to make.

I found a patch of snow in a corner this morning that was probably just as deep as the one the idiot family up the street got stuck in. Funny, I turned through it, no problems at all. Must suck to be genetically incapable of driving.

 

[MotF Bane]

So far, we've had I think three snow storms, and two of them were foot plus storms on workdays. My father and I want to go test drive an Infiniti G37x in snow, see how well their AWD/RWD implementation works.

 

[MotF Bane]

Nerf.

 

[MotF Bane]

I'm still a little chilled in here, and my hands are freezing. This is fucking ridiculous. I'm wearing three shirts and a sweatshirt.

 

[MotF Bane]

I'm going to bring in my thermometer tomorrow and take a reading.

I think I am going to research the PMP certification.

RMS > PMP although both are generally unused in the pro world.

I am not sure if they'd reimburse me for the PMP, but I can do it for only a couple grand, I think. Our tuition reimbursement is capped at $5200/yr and that would only pay for a couple of MBA courses. I will not go into debt for an MBA or spend large sums of my own money for such a risky proposition.

 

[MotF Bane]

We found an old Saturn, one of the original models, with a manual transmission and somewhere around 200k miles, for $650. It's a possibility. Take my GP off the road for a bit, transfer registration, and I can learn to drive manual with the ultimate definition of a beater.

You're staying at the company for another three years for the retirement vesting, aren't you? So there's 15k for the courses.
