          I was actually hoping I could award some secret prize to the first person who responded with "Right about now", "Once you started" or something along those lines. So please, accept your phantom tchotchke[^].

                Sadly, no, but I did find my undergrad CS course in ASM much more stimulating than Advanced Marketing Management and the laughable courses they pass off as statistics.

                      "when" "become" Those are definitely in the wrong tense. Most likely happened when you enrolled, or perhaps even decided to enroll.

                              I think you'll find he's already had his spine and urgency removed. They should be fitting the procrastination soon.

                                  Hi, You got the letters behind your name, now live up to them, and forget about the crap. The only ones that need to quote them are those that fail. The ones that succeed go bij their reputation. When is the last time that 'Red Adaire' was asked for his qualifications. Bram.

                                        Truthfully, I started before I was doing dev work; I was working at some soulless monstrosity of a 'software' company doing tech support, they were going to pay for it, and it was pretty much the only way I was getting off the phones full-time. However, right before I started, I got a dev job at a start-up (that didn't pay for it...), so I figured I was already in and registered, so just stick it out.
