    And here I thought it would be places like "bedroom", "kitchen", "laundryroom", not a list of companies! (Now please, that's more a reflection on what I expected on posts with titles like that, and not my own personal opinions--damn, where's my lawyer to write a fancy disclaimer when I need one!)

          Actually, it's for working moms, which also covers working dads who actually help out in raising the kids. Doesn't say what criteria were used to generate the list, so it's pretty much useless.

            I'd say the men's list is "everywhere[^]". OK, the official list[^].

                is that where most of your interaction with women happens then?

                Sounds like most of his interaction is trying chat up some female Elf in World of Warcraft that is really some Ukranian bloke with fetish.

                      (and there's probably several hundred more) 1) Any job that requires dynamite 2) Ferrari test-to-destruction driver 3) Guinness taster 4) Whisky master at Bowmores 5) Hagen Das quality control (adhesion and melt-rate department) 6) Roadie for - well, anybody that truely rocks 7) Formula 1 - specifically the bloke who holds the "brakes" sign in front of the really highly qualified driver during the pit stop 8) Mad scientist - especially something truely obscure where you can't easily be found out 9) Dump truck driver at an open cast mine 10) 4th official at the world cup finals (Only bothered to think of 10 - any list compiled by a man should, by definition, be a "Top 10 ...")

                                          between my legs is always a good place for them to work :wtf:


                                          You don't see a WTF in spawning hundreds of threads ?? Or using code found on places like codeproject.com in production applications ... Code that is most likely untested, or barely test, more often than not, not made by reputable developers/development groups/etc ?? .... Wow ...---WTF

                                          Talk is cheap and that's all you are. And, nobody is really interested.
