    Yeah, but you probably didn't go "oh, I've graduated - I'll take a few months off before I have to start earning a living or even looking for a job" :laugh:

    I had about 1.5 months of free time between graduating and the military - Well, it was vacation days and overtime I had collected over the years I had to take. Seriously, if you are a student and have saved up money during your pre-graduation time there is nothing wrong with spending it on a time-out, as longs as it feels like the right thing to do for the individual.

      That's why you have endless queues of Italian engineers coming in Germany to work.

      Don't forget the endless queues of Syrians! Hey, there must be some programmers among the refugees! :-D

        Hi all, Something is puzzling to me. It's autumn where I live, and the new school year has started and people are coming in from their summer vacations. What I want to know is, what kind of crack are the companies in Southern California smoking, and where can I get some? By the way, I am employed; however, I like to keep "feelers out," just in case. I suspect other people do the same. Anyhow, wages for developers are in the LOW five figure ranges and all the job ads say, "New graduates wanted." What new graduates? I mean, is this really the time of the year to be posting want ads for new graduates? I thought the new crop of graduates was available in the spring/summer. And what's with $45,000/year in Southern Calif. for a senior developer? I guess I'd apply for a job paying such crap, if I was living on the sofa in my Mom's basement (which I'm not, thankfully). Anyone have any ideas?

          Hey, some do have higher standards :D I've been a member here before I graduated, and never was one of the pleazz codeezzz guys. Neither is Brisingr, and as far as I'm concerned he is a student.

          I'm out of school for a while. Ivy Tech had issues keeping track of student data. After they lost my data for the sixth time in a month, I dropped out and left (as did about 90% of the rest of the students).

          What do you get when you cross a joke with a rhetorical question? The metaphorical solid rear-end expulsions have impacted the metaphorical motorized bladed rotating air movement mechanism. Do questions with multiple question marks annoy you???
