That's cool - my friend has her Masters in Psychology. Lucrative field. In a few months she may even have Saturdays off at the Gap.

Not my fault she is too lazy to use it properly.

Semantics. Call it a "command" or call it a "prompt". What it is is programming code that brings you to the point at which you can access the C root directory in DOS. Is that not a command?

[soundtest]

I disagree with both of you. C is just the root directory of a drive labelled as C. The blinking cursor after the C> is the 'prompt' and anything you'd type to do something would be the 'command'.

[kellychaos]

It could be construed either way, I guess. Say, for instance, your were to type "A". That would bring you to a place in the A drive where you can then access the root directory in A. To get back to the C drive, however, you would then have to type "C". That's the way I took his meaning. Of course, when you access the DOS, it does start at the "C" prompt, so it could be construed that way as well.

WHY DO YOU POST HERE


Anyways, I hate it when people shit on going to school. Once again it is the slackers who have ruined it for everyone.

The job market isn't THAT hopeless. It all depends on what you bring to the field. Most of the college graduates who are still working at the McDonalds (or McArts as we cleverly call it on our campus) and bitch and whine about useless degrees are the lazy ones who just barely passed thier courses. Most students seem to thing you can coast by with a 2.0 GPA and graduate and be one the way to guaranteed financial gain.

AChimp mentioned the same point with computer science graduates. They all think that a simple degree will make them front runners for high paying jobs at Microsoft or IBM. Sadly it is the few that are actually good that are hired, while the rest of them start careers at EB.

The BMW comment aside the whole point of my post is the Evil Robot is an idiot for foolishly trying to dicern the difference between what is a "real" job or not. A real job is one that gives you satisfaction and pays you money.

But the real lesson is that Evil Robot is an idiot. He claims, sorry, BRAGS he has the oppurtunity to make 60 dollars an hour, and I promise all of you he hasn't even ever come close.

Let him say what he wants, he is only fooling himself.

But as long as his is satisfied, then who am I to judge.

You generally type "A:" or "C:" not "A" or "C".

Of course, a DOS prompt by default ends in > ("C>") so...

WHAT GIVES?

Again, I think you're both wrong.

It seems like since everyone's started calling everyone a jixby ripoff, everyone's trying to sound smart and make important posts.

STFU SPOOKY YOU'RE JUST TRYING TO ACT LIKE JIXBY AGAIN YOU UNORIGINAL BASTARD

[Evil Robot]

And it all started when I said "get a real job, loser". Why don't you use you psycho whatever the hell learnin' to realize that your getting all heated over close to nothing! Damn, if you act like that in real life your gonna make for one fucked up therapist! (your so angry you might even become the rapist!). By the way, I don't "do" BMWs and there is no union for mechanics.
P.S. Ten bucks says in thirty years C will be a social worker dealing with abusive families and taking children away from people.

BAM! how do you like them apples bitch?!

[Slinky Ferret]

Dear C you may be doing a psychology degree or something but that doesn't mean you are any better than the rest of the people on here. A piece of paper alone does not get you the job of your dreams, hard work plus the piece of paper may give you a better salary at the end of the day but with more money there is more stress and responsibility.

I'm studying a computing degree at uni and I'm fortunate to have a years placement so I may walk out of uni and straight back into the job. The thing is I will start on a crap wage but after a few years of experience under my belt I will be earning alot of money.

I'm still fairly young but one thing I have noticed is that good manners and respect for other people actually get you somewhere in life. As well as doing your best at your job even if the customers or others are pissing you off. Surely as a student you should try to choose jobs that will give you skills that will make you more employable or don't you worry like that in the USofA?

he's not even that funny anyways.

[Perndog]

Bah, screw working hard and being straightforward. That'll put you right on the road to middle management where all the boring losers of the business world end up. The way to get ahead in any professional field is to destroy the competitors you can and flatter the ones you can't destroy.
