.Net Programmers Fall in CNN's Top 5 In-Demand

GT_Alias writes "CNN Money is reporting that .Net programmers are one of the top 5 most in-demand jobs. Of the positions where recent surveys have indicated a labor shortage, .Net developers and QA analysts are the two that fell under the 'technology' category. According to CNN Money, .Net developers can make between $75-85K starting out in major cities, with the potential to make 15% more if they have a particular proficiency. Additionally, QA workers can make $65-75K a year with the ability to negotiate a 10-15% pay jump if they switch jobs. How does this information compare with the Slashdot crowd's real-world experience?"

The more interesting fact in this article..

The more interesting fact in this article (IMHO) is that, apparently, you can get an MBA in marketing. What the fuck is that all about? Sure, MBAs are as close to diplomas from non-accredited "universities" "based on you life experience" as they can get without attracting interest from the law as it is, but to hand them out even to marketingdroids.. *shudder*..

(Of course, any one with an MBA in marketing should understand that the fact that you're getting an MBA in marketing devalues the MBA instantly, so really, they should fail straight away for even daring to apply).

I would be ashamed to be a *dot* net programmer. Use Debian or similiar distro, and you can get programmers from all over the world.
