Oh god if I get cornered by one more amateur hobbyist computer 'whiz' or hear about one more from a coworker I think I may just drown, twiching apoplectic, in a pool of my own bile. Really, yes thats nice, or your nephew is good with computers how interesting, could you hold this rubber tube around my arm while I slice my wrists open? Thank you very much.
Here's the reality. People who tinker with computers at home who take them apart and buy parts and put them together and get some level of function with them but have no formal training and no professional experience are hobbyists. Now, a hobbyist / tinkerer is not a bad thing, but it is light years away from being useful in an enterprise environment. The reality is - you don't know shit. You can't pass the A+ based on what you 'know' let alone a MCP or CCNA or other professional & recognized certification. You know less than 1% what I do, and 99% of that little bit that you do know serves absolutely no purpose in an enterprise / network.
Don't hate me for being the messenger, and again I have nothing against hobbyists for hobbying sake because I was a hobbyist myself starting when I was about 12... but don't equate that to a professional IT person. It's like a 4 year old on a trike being compared to an astronaut. So there, I said it. You don't know shit, stop posing.
