I also know you are not interested. You are someone with no personal experience with IT, and yet you continue to argue points about it. It is difficult for me to take you seriously. You are talking to someone who works in the field every day, who reads three trade magazines on a monthly basis and yet you, someone with only secondhand knowledge are convinced you are right? This depresses me.

So go ahead, claim my reading comprehension is poor yet again. It seems that is your answer to everything in this thread.
Once again, you are very wrong. It is funny how you crunchies of today, think you know it all, when in fact you couldn't be more wrong. LOL!!!

No, I am not in IT but I have a DH that is and has been for years and could make you run in circles. Kind of like you are doing now. LOL!

It is poor reading comprehension, of it wasn't you would see that this is about principle. Nothing more, nothing less.

I can see we will never see eye to eye on this issue. Let's just agree to disagree for now. I will consider what you have said, and I will ask you to do the same for me. With any luck we will both learn something from this discussion. After all, that is the most we can strive for, isn't it?

No where in that article did she say she wouldn't work there or she was to good to work there.
What she is saying is in fact true...

Once again you are twisting words to fit your agenda. And you are mis-quoting someone, that is the wrong thing to do.

I don't know of anyone that plans or sets out to work in those places. Everyone has higher hopes than that.

Shutting people from a conversation because they do not share your point of view is what is wrong with todays society.

Of course we disagree but I do hope that you will consider that this is not about someone wanting something for nothing. This is about principle and most of this country doesn't operate with that any longer. That is why we are in the mess we are in today.

That is what is behind this. This young girl will have to pay for her education, she will have to work and pay her dues but what is being done to her is being done to many. And at one time this type of thing was unacceptable in this country. And it still should be because obviously what has been going on the past few years isn't working.

Actually the majority of highly educated workers with skills to match their education are making high five to mid-six figure salaries in this area.

The fact remains, Trina's skills are not good enough to land her an IT job. The Monroe curriculum proves it. Nobody can wish it to be otherwise. The only thing that can possibly be done is for her to go back to college and get a REAL computer science or computer engineering degree.

argue that with them....
Read it again. She has a

Bachelor of Arts
Business Administration

Information Technology

That is a Business Administration degree with some I/T coursework. it is NOT an I/T degree.

Seems like you need to go back to my post. You can have a discussion without resorting to calling people stupid and dipstick. What I had asked for was some civility. Guess that's too much to ask. Additionally, I never even expressed an opinion/point of view on the subject so I have no clue where you got the impression that I don't share her point of view. Some people read posts so quickly and respond before understanding what they read. That's what's wrong with today's society.
