We were all n00bs once.....

It would be nice to be able to hire someone who could explain the difference between a router and a switch.  May not need to know how to program them, but at least a working knowledge of the basic concepts.  

Those of us with more experience tend to be set in our ways to the point that it may be difficult for a business to mold us to what they need rather than us trying to change them.  Sometimes that's a good thing, and sometimes its bad when we tell them "that's gonna backfire" and we are right.
