  1. I heard someone call for an engineer?

    On a more serious note, the RO's are basically the FO's you guys are going on about, while SO's are the recruitment force. Granted it's overlapping in most places as RO's play on the server as well and SO's are a police force, but the main idea is already in place, just under a different name.


  2. War sucks....

    It sucked even harder back then. People now days deploy for 4 months to a year. Back then soldiers deployed for up to 4 years. Just think about that....4 years straight of getting shot at. Most soldiers today are pussies just worried about college money.

    And yet... they're better than pussies who worry about college money while in college. (me)


  3. If a professor at your local university has a masters or maybe a doctorate and earns between 60-85K (rough estimate) and he is teaching bachelor level students who are supposed to earn 100K + ??????

    If this is the case.....well.....it sounds like a sci-fi alternate universe.

    people stay in academia because of what it offers. You get to teach students, live a relatively stationary "non-stressful" life, and stay at the tip of your field by doing research funded by your university. The pay is obviously less than the industrial market, but both situations offer different experiences.

    Anyway, I'm fairly confident in those numbers I posted earlier, they may be a bit optimistic (5-10k), but not by much. Many of the 'good' seniors who I had classes with this year are earning in that range. Again, most are going into masters or PhD programs so the sample size isn't that large.

    @ Moose, if you got financial aid and scholarships from BYU, you should be able to do the same for Masters or PhD. Many colleges will pay 50-100% of your tutition for masters if you do some TA/Research work. PhD programs will usually pay for everything including your room/board and a small stipend.


  4. BME from which college?

    anyway: http://chenected.aic...nitial-payback/

    $65.7k per year starting salary. the survey doesn't take into account any higher education than a bachelors

    and will you take a look at that, ChemEngs break 100k with a bachelors with 15 years experience

    and if you think that website is biased:

    http://www.cnn.com/2011/LIVING/06/06/paying.jobs.2011.grads.cb/index.html

    $66.9k per year to ChemEngs


  5. I've been fired by Marvin.

    Jokes aside, I'm resigning my staff position for personal reasons. It's been a fun ride since I was the first SO/staff member representing WCS1. Now it seems all the new staff is from WCS1. I'll still be in the clan and stuff, but won't have the time to do staff stuff.

  6. I presume a Chinese girl to be working at a Chinese restaurant. Even if waitresses have no impact on the quality of the actual food, Chinese managers and owners tend to only hire Asiatic men and women for every position and service. While it is not absolute, it is fair to say that Chinese restaurants consist mainly of Chinese workers.

    The same is true for Indian and I'm sure any non-European restaurant.
