Tech Jobs Projected to Double by 2010
netbsd_fan writes "Today's Chicago Tribune has an article that claims that the number of coding jobs will double by 2010, and computer support jobs aren't far behind. It's hard to believe since I just laid off our last two Win32 guys Friday. Could this be a turning point in the labor market?"
EAT ME RAW!
Tech Jobs Projected to Double by 2010. In India maybe.
A professor at the University of Mississippi is giving a
lecture on the supernatural. To get a feel for his
audience, he asks: "How many people here believe in
ghostses?" About 90 students raise their hands.
"Well, that's a good start. Out of those of you who
believe in ghostses, do any of you think you've ever seen
a ghostse?" About 40 students raise their hands.
"That's really good. Has anyone here ever talked to a
ghostse?" 15 students raise their hands.
"That's great. Has anyone here ever touched a ghostse?" 3
students raise their hands.
"That's fantastic. But let me ask you one question
further... Have any of you ever made love to a ghostse?"
One student way in the back raises his hand.
The professor is astonished and says, "Son, in all the
years I've been giving this lecture, no one has ever
claimed to have slept with a ghostse. You've got to come
up here and tell us about your experience."
The redneck student replies with a nod and a grin, and
begins to make his way up to the podium. The professor
says, "Well, tell us what it's like to have sex with a
ghostse."
The student replies, "Ghostse?!? From ah-way back there ah
thought yuh said "goatse."

Mamma look!
I thought it was a massive black hole near Uranus.

Sorry, it was a cheap shot for cheap laughs.
If I wasn't so lasy I would link in http://www.goatse.cx but bah, that's probably redundant
As for jobs - every day I go to bed praying that the Paki's and Indi's start a massive shooting war, destroying every bit of build-up Dell, IBM, all the fscking investments they and the other big wigs have been building over there the past half decade or so. Nuke em all, let God sort em out. Sorry, but that is about what it is going to take to bring jobs back here to the US. Well anything other than McJobs... I am surprised that this thread hasn't devolved into another one of those, and please don't use this as an invitation to become one.
But I'm not bitter.

Why are all the good points written by AC's? And if not, something like this would be a Troll. Cynisism != Troll. Mod parent up.
so this monkey walks a long one day and finds an elephant trapped in a hole. He says hey hold i'll save you let me get my mercedes. So he goes and ties a rope to the bumber and pulls the elephant out. so the elephant thanks him and goes they go their seperate way.
Then about a month later the monkey is walking along and he falls into the same hole. He's trapped down there for a few hours but along comes the elephant. The elephant says hey now i can save you, you know repay the favor. So he lowers his schlong down into the whole and says ok climb out. The monkey is disgusted but he says oh ok fine and he climbs out. The monkey is annoyed but he thanks him and they do their seperate ways.
Ok children what does it all mean? The moral is:
If you have a big dick you don't need a mercedes.
Hokus Pokus Muther Fucker!!!

:) :) Boy if that's not more reason to bomb me I don't know what is.
Anti-bush, Anti-US rhetoric
I suppose you liked the Russian assasin list
provided to iraq for ease of whacking western
ppls ???
Sheesh, isn't that "You're not with us, therefore you are against us" mentality? Just because I don't like Bush, doesn't mean I love Saddam.
Good grief, we are cooperating with pakistan
and they ARE a hotbed of Islamic extremism
The president of pakistan just happens to
know that 9-11 pissed us off enough to
collect a blood debt
Also being that close to Afghanistan gave
them a birds eye view of how it went down
Errm, and your point is...?
You can whine and moan and vote the
Sore-Loserman ticket in 2004, and I wish
you the best of luck
Well I wish I could, I doubt my vote would count anyway, but considering I'm not an USian (Thank the deities I'm not!) I can't vote in US elections.
That's right, I'm a foreigner, so you can stop reading now, my opinions don't count, you can just bomb me.
Bonus: I live in Germany.
And I don't think I'd be spending time in any Gulags real soon now, but had I been living in USA, I'm sure I'd already be in one ("You've won a free trip with accomodation, in Guantanamo Bay!!!" -- I'm not sure how good the surf down there is, though), considering the government doesn't like free speech that criticizes its actions, and that I come from the world's largest Muslim nation.
No, I'm not a Muslim so that's no bonus for you.
Fuck you and the moronic president you're supporting. Bush doesn't represent what USA stands for, and his actions are alienating USA from the rest of the world. You're just as bad as Saddam supporters who believe Iraq (their version of Iraq) will someday rule the world and that anyone who disagrees with them is wrong! The only difference is the USA has enough bombs to accomplish Iraq's goal. So let's roll and bomb the world already!
What time is it/will be over there? Check with my iPhone app!
I was one of the two "Windows 32 guys,"
You insensitive clod!!!
Can anyone tell me how to set my sig on Slashdot?
