    Choice A: 1, Learn a new program language - Java, I am familiar with MS languages, like C++, C#, VB, ASP.NET, but know little about Java. 2, If I want to stay in department A, I have to learn Java. Choice B: 1, Go to department B, because the languages department B used are MS languages. 2, But the manager of department B is a narrow guy, so you know... Which one will you choose if you were me?:)

    I think you can learn Java. Java is similar as C#.

          Now I like in Kunming China. So I like the verse "天气常如二三月,花技不断四时春。". And I'm so sorry to use the word "amour". My English is to poor. "love in office" is a great hundred cute than "amour".

              At the end of the day what matters more than language, managers, co workers, etc etc is your interest in the project. Managers come and go, most OO languages are really just an abstraction of the same old ideas. Pick the one that you think will give you the motivation to get out of bed on friday mornings.

                  It's my quote but I don't know if it's ever been used by others. I coined it off a "eat to live" bumper-sticker and all I could think of was the quote you are asking about. My clients call me on Sunday afternoons at 10:00PM at night. They call all the time and want the dumbest things off-hours. It would be one thing if a critical system was down but that never has happened yet. So that's my quote and my life at times.:sigh:


                  My name is Maximus Decimus Meridius, Commander of the Armies of the North, General of the Felix Legions, loyal servant to the true emperor, Marcus Aurelius. Father to a murdered process, husband to a murdered thread. And I will have my vengeance, in this life or the next. - Gladiator I work to live. I do not live to work. My clients do not seem capable of grasping this fact.

                  That is unbelievable. Are your customers in another country or what? When in NY, I was impressed because no one cared about business on weekends. ...and never at night unless something major happened, and all power downs and maintenance stuff are scheduled. Thomas

                      I think the problem is that I'm way to relaxed with my current customers and they just *feel* like it's fine to do. I've really modified my candor with all new business and while I'm still myself I'm not nearly as open about things. I arrive, I meet, we talk, we plan and then I leave. I don't stay to chat under any context. I get the scope and I boogie out. That seems to be the difference maker.

                                Thats silly, Im talking about motivation for the work. If you go to Dept B and she is not interested in you what are you going to do then?

                                  Yes. I had that happen to me a couple of times -- requests for fixing computers so that they can play computer game comes up at odd hours :). The odd hour requests were never about the work though. Thomas

                                    Ditch department B. If you were married to her they wouldn't allow it and since you aren't don't make a dumb decision. Besides if you both work in different areas you will have more to talk about than if you worked in the same place. I don't know about anyone else but when I first met my wife all I could think about was her and if I had needed to write software (during that time) while in her proximity I would have gotten nothing done. I'd probably have installed about 500 web cams:-O and that would have been right before they fired me.

Father to a murdered process, husband to a murdered thread. And I will have my vengeance, in this life or the next. - Gladiator I work to live. I do not live to work. My clients do not seem capable of grasping this fact.

                                      Choice A: 1, Learn a new program language - Java, I am familiar with MS languages, like C++, C#, VB, ASP.NET, but know little about Java. 2, If I want to stay in department A, I have to learn Java. Choice B: 1, Go to department B, because the languages department B used are MS languages. 2, But the manager of department B is a narrow guy, so you know... Which one will you choose if you were me?:)

                                      I'd go for A based upon what you've said. Java isn't going anywhere any time soon. It's a popular language especially for middleware and it should pan out for you. If your .Net skills are good I'd really recommend A. Nothing like strengthening a strong skill with another unrelated skill.

                                        Thats silly, Im talking about motivation for the work. If you go to Dept B and she is not interested in you what are you going to do then?

                                        System.IO.Path.IsPathRooted() does not behave as I would expect

                                        Yes, I'm talking about work too, but I bethink of she immediately when I saw the word "motivation". The work and the girl are bemuse me so much. :^)

                                          Now I like in Kunming China. So I like the verse "天气常如二三月,花技不断四时春。". And I'm so sorry to use the word "amour". My English is to poor. "love in office" is a great hundred cute than "amour".

                                          That seems Kunming is a good place.

                                          Take it easy, and just write it.
