    Politely explained to him that I would record that down, and when a REMOTE telemetry site went down and lost control - they could call him to drive the 40km journey to see what was wrong.
    While I can't say much for most graduates......it scares me what comes out of ECNZ's finest every now and then. Turns out whatever generation I deal with - there are people whom understand stuff, and morons.
    Usually the latter stop learning when they get "qualified".
    trust me they are everywhere ,,,,,, even on this site I have seen compression on a bit of string ( so to speak )

    where a few min with a pen and paper or a drawing board ( costs nothing ) and irons out a lot of "problems "

    anyway , just smile ,,,,,,,,,and make sure your name isnt attached when it goes pear shaped !

    Im not the most literate person when it comes to computers. However I do know what I see staring me in the face or not.
    Currently I'm dealing with smart ass "help desk" personel who are with vehicle advertising sites I deal with.
    In one case stock is showing multiple times on my screen.
    Being told that without question NO thats not possible really tears my shorts. -Ohh yea Im gonna get through your computer voice answering service,then to some idiot in "customer support" to then wait to be put through to you for the fun of it?
    To demand a screen shot to proove Im not lying had me looking for other options.

    Why can't these people actually say -"yes we have a problem"??
    To see a life newly created.To watch it grow and prosper. Isn't that the greatest gift a human being can be given?

    Im sorry , but I cant understand why people pay money for windoze

    that has to be the dumbest thing ever

    Sometimes I use windose and EVERY time i do I am reminded why I dont


    IF , it produced a revolutionary , or even an incentive to use it , i would gladly pay the money .....but why ..

    other systems are free ... and just as good if not better in some area

    oh I forgot , I cant play warcraft on ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,


    Life , one must get .......

    MS seem to be doing their best to discourage people from using Windows. Win8 is a fucken abortion unless you install a 3rd party Start button and then after that it's just painful.
    Zen wisdom: No matter what happens, somebody will find a way to take it too seriously. - obviously had KB in mind when he came up with that gem

    Artificial intelligence is no match for natural stupidity
