Great job. I would like to use it as a recruiting tool for my class.

Send me some more information, I'll talk with Ryan, and we might give you a high quality copy. Thanks for watching. -Kenneth

It was alright. I don't understand your comment on how Cisco training helps you fix issues and then you call someone else to fix the issue in the next scene? I also didn't like how the end user was always portrayed as being rude and ignorant.

[electiveinsanity]

The other person on the phone was Ryan-one of the students in the video... So we were not having someone else fix the problem; we were solving it together.

As for the end user's attitude, this was intended to be a humorous video. Although if you had much real-world experience outside of the classroom, you would know not every user is knowledgeable or friendly. One of the challenges of IT is remaining polite and helpful under duress.

It was pretty good until you started bragging about your credentials, then it was pretty lame.
