    In the vast majority of organisations you honestly don't need a degree to make a career in software development; what counts more is the right mindset and experience. I've an electronics degree, and although it got me in the door at my first company as a graduate (a hurdle you've already sidestepped), it hasn't made a blind bit of difference since. However, my partner Beth doesn't have a degree at all - and she's done quite fine for herself too.

    Thanks for the input. I actually decided to move on and am starting my new job on Monday next week. Very excited! On top of that, my new job offers reimbursement for educational expenses!

      I may have a codpiece or two stashed away, but it's more likely the heavy weapons and the maniacal grin that makes them run. ;P

      Is that a euphemism for large breasts? ;)

            I'm too old for it to make much difference. I'd rather have a quiet night in curled round a large bottle of Whisky.
