Yes it is a sad fact. It is also sad that i know more than the people who are trusted to fix PC's at places like Bestbuy and the local shops. I have been in store and told the people how to fix the PC with little to no effort and have it back flawlessly. Yet i still cant get a job with them cause i dont have the paper.
Which is why i am now working on M$ Certs to see if maybe those will help. I doubt it....
