Get Mongrel Certified! + +I'm not one to be overpowered by the great ideas of other open source projects. +But, the second I smell cash to be had from hapless tools using my software I am THERE! Once I +read "the CakePHP Certification plans":http://www.cakefoundation.org/pages/certification +I thought, "Holy crap, I could make more money than Don King's ring finger doing that!" + +After much deliberation with absolutely nobody, I am proud to announce the +official *Mongrel Ultimate Deployment Certified Rails Aptitude Program(tm)(sm)(patent pending)*. + +The only certification you need to get that cushy job making developers beg you +for system administration services while you surf porn instead of doing your +real job. Nothing says "professionalism" more than having MUDCRAP-CE after your +name. + +Start now and even you could append up to *nine* (yes nine!) letters +after your name and get a guaranteed pay raise or that great job without know *anything* +other than how to tell other people how to pronounce your particular certification acronym. + +Prices are also very high, since your manager knows that the cost of a certification +program directly relates to its quality. The more you spend the more you show management +that you're a team player. No, a MUDCRAP Team Player! + + +h2. How To Get That Cert! + +MUDCRAP certification involves intensive training courses from me (Zed A. Shaw) the creator of Mongrel. +I am only available at specific conferences and will only teach a select chosen few +MUDCRAPers per conference. Each set of courses trains the prospective MUDCRAPer in: + +* Defending your job with claims of "security", "scalability", and "capability" +just like the Enterprise guys. +* Inventing performance numbers for fun and profit. Nothing lies better than complex well crafted +statistics. Learn to use them to compete with other people's fake statistics. +* Using the new OSX virtual desktop features to hide your chosen fetish porn while you work. +* Inventing your very own security policies to do even less work. Management has entrusted +you with managing the systems, and that means you get to set the policies everyone follows. Use +this power to make your life easier. +* Avoiding automating your system administration job so that you always have something to pretend +working on. +* Blaming *developers* for your mistakes. *EXTRA* This course now covers +using complex permissioning systems and shared directories to "protect" your servers from +the developers while actually only protecting your job. +* Unlearning everything you probably didn't know about Configuration Management and collaboration. +Nobody needs you to cooperate when you're the *king of the kingdom*. + +And this is just a few of the great lessons awaiting you in these wonderful classes. + +h2. Ordering Information + +E-mail zedshaw at zedshaw.com to reserve a seat. The next class is at RubyConf and will +only seat 10 people. That's how dedicated I am to the quality of my courses. You +will leave my course feeling confident, empowered, and capable enough to avoid learning anything +ever again for at least 10 years. + +Act now to become the first MUDCRAPer! Seats are filling fast! + + |
