I remember a point in time when I would have given my left arm for a job at Cisco... yet today I find myself saying:

Thank you very much for the flattering opportunity, however at this time I am very happy where I am. I will definitely let you know though should things change. Best of luck in your search! See you on the battlefield!

This is a day I won't forget.... corny I know...

Nice!!!

Did they come looking for you?

Cisco core markets are rapidly getting commoditized; you are better off working for a company that still has some growth potential left.

Nice!

Those always feel good.

You know how satisfied you are by the quality of the jobs you're declining.

Yeahhh it's pretty typical for vendors to try and snatch folks from their competitors.

BTW - Interesting name you have there - what's the story behind "EOS"?

hahaha Nothing to do with Arista!

Many years ago it was an online Playstation Clan - "Element Of Surprise"

haha that is funny. Everyone I interface with at Arista generally loves what they are doing.
