  • RE: Step Up, Don’t Step Back

    Yeah, I agree Chris, this editorial was really thought provoking and interesting. I think it's easy to sometimes rest on your laurels and not push yourself but in my career...

    :arrow:Here's an idea for you that would benefit you, your family, and your friends as well.

    Learn more about taking good care of our bodies. I mean learning more...

  • RE: Memories of 2013

    lol, well I didn't do any of those things. I just hit F5 and it started working. Honest. I checked with my co-worker Justin and it's now working for him....

  • RE: Memories of 2013

    See what I mean! Someone needs to help Brent and I get this resolved before the new year. It's clearly disturbing to both of us. I just hate it when...

  • RE: Memories of 2013

    Can anyone else confirm that the content section of http://www.brentozar.com/blitz/ is down with a 404 Error - Page Not Found? Brent's arguing that it's just me and I...

  • RE: Memories of 2013

    My best memories so far are finding that I can't see Brent Ozar's sp_blitz as http://www.brentozar.com/blitz/ is reporting a "404 Error - Page Not Found" error. The second...

    I assume the culture in the UK is similar to the US then as far as college "requirements" for most tech jobs?

    Not quite as firmly...

  • RE: The MCM Program is dead. Long live the MCMs!

    Okay, last question. Do they normally "require" degrees at Red Gate? Again, I'm absolutely not questioning the decision - I know you have skills and you're a very good and...

  • RE: The MCM Program is dead. Long live the MCMs!

    That sounds like a hard road to plow, but like I said before, I think the whole college thing is stupid. You're right, talking to the right people, everything is...

    Grant Fritchey (9/19/2013)...Which is why I would do everything in my power to always bypass the HR department.

    And just how are you going to do that?

  • RE: The MCM Program is dead. Long live the MCMs!

    Concur, if you don't have a degree and try to job hop, you will find you're filling out a lot of applications with few interviews and fewer job offers. I...

  • RE: The MCM Program is dead. Long live the MCMs!

    I concur with everything AmenJonathan is saying, but even an associates in CIS is better than nothing, or an associates in computer engineering. I work with a guy that's got...

  • RE: The MCM Program is dead. Long live the MCMs!

    Hey carpainter, I think the answer is "it depends". You are required to have a "computer" degree (computer science, computer engineering, software development, computer information systems) to work as a...

  • RE: The MCM Program is dead. Long live the MCMs!

    lol Grant, you just cemented the reasoning behind my question. Very successful, no certifications, no college. A vote for the self-taught man. You'da known that if you...

    ...The value of these is definitely in giving structure and motivation to round out your knowledge in areas you might not otherwise have considered. If you're cheating at...
