Unemployed? How Long Until You Find That Next Job
An anonymous reader writes "If you're unemployed like me, you probably want to know how long it will last. Well, someone decided to see if they couldn't stastistically predict how long they would be unemployed by polling others - the results page is up for a variety of industries and it's interesting. Clearly the more data put in, the better the results, so while your at it, submit your own information."
When? I'm guessing at the start of WWIII when Bush drafts me for some weapons production related project.
Stop bitching, you whiney little cunt.
People are starving in India!!!!! Why should corporate executives spend money on some expensive geek when they could hire an H-1B for cheap and use the money saved to buy a new yacht? More H-1Bs NOW!!!!
Fear not, your government is hard at work pumping money into the economy. Too bad for the rest of the world that your corporate welfare projects are disguised as wars.
How small a thought it takes to fill a whole life
I always hate when people with a MCSE call themselves an "Engineer". I went to 6 years of college, including grad school, and some little MSFT indoctrinated flunkie wants to think they are my equal in the realm of computer science. I always like asking "Microsoft Engineers" what a Turing Machine is, or the definition of NP Complete (or basically any question from Theory of Algorithms). Yes there is more to programming than just drawing screens in VB. :-)
I want my rights back. I was actually using them when our government stole them after 9/11.
The rest of us unemployed people call that "luck". Thanks for sharing your Lottery moment, do bask in it, as that one in a million shot isn't likely to come around anytime soon.
Then again, if you get struct by lightning, I think we'd all like to hear about that, I just hope you don't end up like that guy from Uncle Buck.
All I know about Bush is I had a good job when Clinton was president.
