Hey guys... I was balancing my checkbook so to speak and I just realized that pretty soon I have to start paying back my college loans(graduated may). Yet there's no job in sight. So you know what I say? Bring on the noodles... I wonder if I could provide adequate nutrition for myself for $200 a month I never tought I'd face the day when I'd graduate from college and I would face hunger! hahahah... On a different note, I'm starting to think those Java certifications are a joke. Employers just don't seem to care about them. And really I don't think they should. The fact that you know how Java strings are stored internally doesn't amount to much. I did pass the programmer one with 94 but if you can walk and chew gum at the same time, you could pass a lot of these... I finally landed a job interview for a job that has no title yet. I surely hope they serve bagles in the morning On yet another note, I'm quite happy that the IT market is more competitve. It was filled with incompetent Javascript turned VisualBasic "programmers." And yet on another note, the interest rate on my loan is really low, which means I can pay $30 dollars less each month... Think of it as 30 more cups of noodle
