4 years of college everything led up to this
I paid $899 dollars for a certification it gave me two practice tests..... and I felt highly prepared for it
I start taking the test.. boom miss the first one..
it was touch and go for a while but I passed... not by a lot but I passed
I'm now a GIAC Certified Forensic Analyst
and can throw GCFA after my name

I actually currently work at Walmart in the deli.. been doing it for 5 years while putting myself through school
but on May 10th I have a job interview with a Security Consulting Company out of Cleveland, Ohio they've helped consult a couple NFL teams, Verizon, Yellowbook.com, and some other larger name businesses
the job has nothing to do with my cert but its the direction I took my internship dealing with network security so its what I want to do

This. You should probably just base your life and job around anything Dexter does

Congrats on the job, though! It's a great feeling, getting paid to indulge in your interests. You better catch some bad guys for me!
