    Translated via Babel fish "The amerloks are too idiots, then not danger which Europeans even urge them to collect the refuse..." Well if every American is an idiot, then every Frenchman is a cheese eating surrender monkey.

    The US is anything BUT rich. Not when we have a huge national debt. If anything, we're the poorest. But that won't stop other countries from bleeding us dry.

    How is it that you call "Black" people African-American but you call European-Americans or Caucasians "White"? You're a racist and you disgust me. I will NOT be identified as a color.

    Even at work, I want to strangle the jerk who leaves his ringer on during a presentation. It's inconsiderate when your boss is trying to present and some new hire's lame cell phone ringtone interrupts him. If I only had some mod points for you....

    I agree with your point, up until you said "redneck." That's a racial slur. -1 for racism.

  11. Re:people who confuse IT with CS on How Important is a Well-Known CS Degree? · · Score: 1

    I agree with you and I have an IST degree. IST can be more like CS than IT but that depends on the option that you decide to take. I took the Developer option, which was more like CS. We were only a handful of students too who braved this path. The rest were the "blue collars" who took the Integration option. Hehe, I hope none of them see this post...

  12. Re:School doesn't matter. Experience does. on How Important is a Well-Known CS Degree? · · Score: 1

    Yes! Companies love portfolios and enthusiasm. They prefer most of the content to be of things you did outside of school. From what I've been told by a hiring manager, they don't value class work that much. Personally, I used it as a filler, but they only looked at the stuff I did during internships and outside jobs.

  13. Re:The degree and school DO matter on How Important is a Well-Known CS Degree? · · Score: 1

    I couldn't have said it better myself. I can't help but to feel a little annoyed by seeing people say "Oh, you don't need a degree. Just look at me, I'm doing well." In reality, there's very little chance that this student will have the same luck as those who are successful without a degree.

  14. Will you do better there? on How Important is a Well-Known CS Degree? · · Score: 1

    They look at your GPA the a lot. Companies like Raytheon and Vanguard won't even look at your resume unless your GPA is 3.5 or higher. Remember, you're competing against everyone else. So if you think you're going to do better at a new place, go for it. I transferred from a school I was doing horrible in GPA(under 2.0) to a better known school. I graduated from there with a 3.7. This was the best decision I've ever made. EH-VER!

  19. Re:one omission on IT (And Other) Salaries On The Rise In The U.S. · · Score: 1
    I beg to differ. I recently graduated from college in May of 2004. I was offered 4 jobs in under a month from graduating. 1 crappy job, 1 ok job, & 2 great jobs. If you do you work and prove to them that you know you stuff, you'll get hired.

    Don't tell me that there are *ZERO* entry level jobs. You're not looking hard enough. If you can't find one in your area: MOVE. That's what I did and I have a fantastic job. The reason I moved wasn't because I couldn't find a job in my area (Philadelphia/Wilmington), it was because the salaries they offered were crap.

    As for internships, I did one with my parent's small business. Small business are good for internships if you can't get into a bigger company.

    What other race gets a red neck? That is clearly aim at those who are "white" and because it's "white" it's ok to you. It's this kind of attitude that perpetuates racial tensions. You don't end racism by promoting it.
