Glad my job is dependent upon what I know, which can only be come by through a long and varied work history
Don't count on it, if your job revolves around the DOD. I've recently watched 6 different contracts in the desks around me awarded to the low bidder, and the people with "long and varied work history" replaced by a bunch of young goof-offs who've done little more than sit around and study for certifications. As I work nights, I witness people studying cram-exams and sleeping, because what's most important to their low-bidding companies, and worse yet, most important to the customer, is how many certs a person has, rather than how well they can do their job, or how deep their knowledge is. Job performance and knowledge are no longer #1.
