The thing that smells like bullshit is "he had every certification under the sun".
Getting certified is not an expression of smarts, but of money / privileged access. Good but poor techs in their 20s are self-taught.
Where did he get the money for a ton of certs, while being unable to afford a car?
A lot of vocational schools will pay for your first attempt at certs, it's the only reason I gave comptia the time of day and got the incredibly overpriced a+ and net+ certs.
Yeah but hardly what an IT Manager would consider "every cert under the sun" i.e. all the big ones at least.
Well you see there's this thing called hyperbole which is almost always included within idioms like that.
Yeah, that's exactly what I just accounted for.
