I've seen that in my field as well. Being licensed is just an inconvenient hurdle that everyone goes through. You're required to get licensed and are given an amount of time after being hired to do it, but it carries no weight. No one really cares that you're licensed other than to check a box off. The company heavily promote various certifications though, because those do carry weight. Some aren't cheap either. They happily pay for people to get certifications because it benefits them in all the ways you mentioned.

No hits on the first generation of video games (as expected), let's see if there are any nostriches out there with second generation systems. image The second generation of video games refers to consoles and handhelds from around 1976 to 1983. It includes things like the Atari 2600 and 5200, Intellivision, ColecoVision, and Vectrex. Drop a picture in the replies from your collection for a badge. We'll tackle the third generation in December. #gamestr #retrogaming #videogames #gaming
Finally getting around to finishing a DIY Jade. Cheap project. No soldering actually required, but I decided to make things more difficult, because why not? image
I like this one a lot. Posting for future reference.
