Chuck, 60. Minimalist when it comes to cube organization but has a prominently displayed PMP Certificate in a cheap Walmart display frame, slightly crooked. Favorite part about work is being a "mentor" to "soft millennials" and printing giant Gantt charts on the office plotter. Biggest pet peeves are folks who move things around in the work fridge and quarterly fire system drills because he hates standing in the stairwell. Married Cindy, his sugar plum who has dimples, two adult children who pursued liberal arts and don't call often. Claims to have help invented earned value management (EVM) although it's pretty "hard to invent math" says Connor, one of his disaffected mentees.
Anything that cannot be tracked in Microsoft Project is suspect to Bill and Chuck. As clearly stated on page 438 of "Microsoft Project for Dummies 16th Edition" and his PMP training all deliverables must be in the project plan, including your regression thingy.
lol reminds of the Microsoft MVP video where this guy is super excited he achieved it... someone post that shit
P2 go home dad
Ha ha I'm kidding, I'm kidding! I told that one to the caddy at the public golf course and he sure got a kick out of it! Now, where the heck is Nance?
D6- I will not using the federal government's antiquated opinions on what certifications are cool as a guide for my own professional development. That'd be like using KFC as my guide for staying fit. I'll be spending my energy on efforts more aligned with the commercial space (and therefore the rest of the world). I bet agencies would also love to hear more about Lotus Notes certification too!
Touché A1- have to return to work tomorrow after a 4 day weekend. I'm cranky! Bill and Chuck and I are gonna have a riproar talking about what our wives did in our suburban homes all weekend! Hold on my belt clip is ringing. *phone rings on default ringtone because baby boomer PMP doesn't know how to change it*

This thread is incredible.
I took the PMP this morning and all you degenerates were in the back of my mind the whole time. I passed thankfully so I never have to look at that shit ever again. Should I put "PMP" after my name on LinkedIn?.....ha fuck that.
They said I'm only allowed to utilize the missionary position with my wife of 45 years.
Hats great news Bill! Get to put those new cialis pills to use. Be sure to buy Nance a nice bottle of $10 wine before romancing her with jimmy buffet.
P1 is all of us
Bill also has a goatee
Ha ha oh yes, she's a real firecracker that's for sure! Excuse me, I need to go make sure she's not talking to that pool boy again...
All joking aside... I hear that Chuck will wax poetic on the virtues of having a PMP at the next IT Department Community of Practice meeting. Denise from down the hall is bringing homemade cookies, and if you bring a friend we will add them to the email list.
OP I'm in the boot camp too out of Rosslyn. The calls are painful and I haven't started the skillsoft yet. Regret signing up...
PMPin ain't easy!
Oh yeah, he got that after he sold his Toyota Yaris on Autotrader.
Congratulations K2! You're now Bill 3. Will PMI be sending you a pot belly, pleated pants, and a matching shirt and tie set as kudos? Take Nance out to a nice dinner at Chili's first. And be sure you go in and tell those soft millenials what hard work does. You're a PMP now!

Probably up at the club shop spending all your money P2. Better go get her! Women... amirite?!
