you guys still alive?

Yeah sorry Eric. I started graduate school and have been pretty busy. Most of the discussion recently has been about COD4 playing on Fridays and Saturdays in the Clan section. I'll restart the topic in the public section.

How you been by the way?

[eric]

I'd be doing better if there were better available jobs around this shit hole. (suburbia)

Where are you getting your degree at?

Drexel: School of Engineering - Major: Software Engineering in IST

I'm not dead set on that just yet.. the off shoring is still a problem for jobs in the US. Yet, I know that the Labor Dept. is projecting database architects, admins and software engineering to be the fastest growth potential for the next 10 - 15 years (even higher than health care). So.. I'm gunning for a public job with mediocre pay with excellent vacation/sick benefits. Dude, I feel your pain in the job market, especially you being a recent grad. I think you'd be better of there rather than here. It's kinda interesting to note that many CA companies are moving to TN. It's the relaxed environmental laws here I think plus tax discount incentives.. probably lower wage costs too.

At the moment, I am just taking the classes that are required for 3 different degrees. I might switch to Computer Science since I already have a bachelors in CS software engineering. I just didn't see the benefit in working my ass off for it this time like I did the first time. I wish I had started this 4 years ago.
