Best Degree to Pair w/ a B.Sc. in Computer Science?
VeryCleverHandle asks: "I have held a Bachelor's degree in Computer Science for about two years now, and I want to further my education, and increase my marketability. I am wondering what kind of degree makes a good pair for my existing one. At first, I thought of a Master's, but in my searches for a job, I've rarely (read: never) seen a Masters degree required. I am also researching what kind of degrees others, who have obtained their Bachelor's, received to help complement their education. So I ask you, Slashdot: Which degree(s) do YOU think will go well with a Computer Science Bachelors?"
I don't know about a degree, but I would recommend taking Hindi.
It could be worse, it could be Monday.

This wasn't another one of those posts where you had to read some long article and make comments. This is one of those "Do you like ice cream?" questions.
Go for the business degree, kid. Whatever you do in this world, there will always be a business manager over you (or working for you)
And yes, I do like ice cream.
You've learned how. Now learn why managers are such a bunch of idiotic fools!
MCSE! MCSE!!!
Can you mention "La Trobe" anymore times?
Christ, you sound more like Marketing than Engineering.
Learn Kung-Fu. It lets you fight off agent Smith, and you can avenger your master after he is slain by ninjas. Plus, I have yet to see someon who holds a MBA or Math degree with those cool Shaolin dragon and lion brands on their wrists.
HA! I just wasted some of your bandwidth with a frivolous sig!
and incompetent marketing at that - he didn't even post a link!
Except now you are an accountant. Gah i'd rather jab pointy objects into my eyes than have to be an accountant. Or even worse - program accounting software.

The obvious ones come to mind, "invisibility", "telekenisis" and "flight". While "superhuman strength" might have some use, it will likely be less so in the future as computers get smaller and lighter. You might also look into "shape shifting" and "teleportation", the latter being helpful if your employment requires long commutes.
I'm Rick James with mod points biatch!
And I'd rather use a well-designed accounting package than have to deal with pointers to objects. :)
I think there is a world market for maybe five personal web logs.
You will be working there soon enough anyway - might as well speak the language
I have mod points and I am not afraid to use them
Not too ironic...

Your ignorance is infinitely greater than you realize.
I'm glad you're studying medicine because my head just fucking blew up reading your gargantuan paragraph.
Is there more than one thought in all of that? I just couldn't get through it.
Get a plumbing degree. You're gonna be putting up with people's shit either way; you may as well get paid decently for it for a change.
