No pressure then!

You also get to provide 'support' on OTN for which you get paid. You need the certification to see calls that you might wish to work on. This is all a bit 'in theory' for me since the system still hasn't registered me as an OCP some three weeks after I got around to registering myself on the site. I would strongly advise any users who use the system to record their system details as 8i even if they are using 9i as otherwise they will only get the pool of 9i certified people to choose from.
