Much more than a systems engineer

 I often see individuals get the framed graduation diplomas and in my field(s), we get certified or licensed and there's a problem with that. Many take that worthless piece of paper and think they've made it. I agree that they have succeeded in at least "one" step, too bad life isn't one step. Life is fluid with millions of steps.

 I have the IBM, Milcom, ProSoft, etc. certs and minimum standard requirements "but" I'm going back to school and will hire professionals to do what I need yet I will be learning as I pay them.

 I know nothing and I understand even less so back to school.

 I actually took the time to look at the inside of my boat, well I'll be damned.

You can write your own check on a computer yet I have yet to see that done on a phone > Food for thought.
