Hello people, I am new user.
I was ashamed when i was asked, to please describe my skills, is this a competition?

For future referance, my skills are(or were):

--> Visual Basic
--> VBScript
--> Javascript
--> Java
--> C/C++
--> XML
--> HTML
--> CSS
--> IIS 4.0
--> Linux (bash)
--> Cisco I
--> Basic
--> DOS
--> Perl
--> ...whatever you can teach i can learn, but with what time? and with what benefits (Why)?

people ask what your skills are so they know who can help them, or what peoples interests are, helps build meaninful conversation.
Theres no compition, noones better than another, we are all just here to have a good time and learn.

I dislike maths, so i couldnt help you.

I'm the same op as sacah, and I'm in the same situation like sacah, so I can't help you either.
And, for your future posts, please stop spreading the lines that much

Don't look to me for math stuff. I'm still trying to grasp Algebra. [addsig]

I just started calculus in my Additional Maths - It looks simple enough from what we have done so far, I just hope it doesn't become impossibly hard.

everybody hopes that stuff doesn't get impossibly hard, but sometimes it's just better to do the impossibly hard stuff too, trust me
[addsig]

I'm going to take all the impossably hard courses and become a programming master I have a shot at becomming a programmer at LucasArts. It's my life long dream. [addsig]

I'd like to go to activision or ID
[addsig]

to work as a programer is a bad idea imho.
but to work as project manager would be great.

just a thought

project managers just sit on their fat lazy asses and lollipop hell out of the programmers. They are simply too stupid and useless for programmin, that's why they get that job
[addsig]

They got paid tons more than a programmer though

that doesn't change the fact that they're stupid lame asses
[addsig]

Who cares how much more they get paid. I want to do what is fun, not what rakes in the most cash. [addsig]

then, leave the real world asap.

Project Managers have managment skills, and people managment skills etc, they were not hired for their codin skills, thats what the programmers are for.
But, yes, If you just want to do it for fun, and not money, leave the real world, as you get older you will discover money plays a big part.
(-;

sacah...wise [addsig]

I know that money plays a big role, but that _still_ doesn't change the fact that project managers (for applications) are fallen dumbass programmers
[addsig]

Let me rephrase that. Sure I'm in it for the money, but I also don't want to be stuck in a job that I don't like. [addsig]

bloody true ....
[addsig]

Um... Kagez you just dont get it.
This is pointless.
Its like a totally diferent skills required, their not meant to be programmers, they are ppl mangaers etc.
duh, thats why they got the job, programmers are horrible at managment skills.

you wanna tell me that you need 0 programming knowledge to be a project manager of a computer application? you must be kidding :/
[addsig]

From what I've seen, project managers rose from the programming area. Like the guy responsible for Mario and Zelda. He was originally a programmer, now he's a project manager. [addsig]

Some programming skills would be good, but from what ive seen, they arent required, I had 2 manager ppl with the police and they knew nothing about computers, but they got the job because the ppl that hire them are ppl who work in admin section, also knowing nothing about computers, these ppl just look for pieces of paper, and managment papaer shines brighter than computers etc.

I know its stupid, but that is how much of the government system works, and its how much of the real world works from my limited experience.
Thats why programmers hate them so much.

I only love project mans who are also developers in that project
a good example would be Carmack. He's the project manager of Doom (series) but also codes on it, or not?
[addsig]

Yeah, I think so .

I reckon you can be a project manager without actual developing skills - it's the ability to set up, manage and delegate the work that is relevant in this case. However, it's probably a lot better to have programmers become project managers

its much better if he has programming skills, cause then he knows what can be done, instead of him[(her) (-;] wantin you to do somethin like change the rotation of earth. But as the world functions today, majority dont have programming skills as they arent hired by programmers, but the admin/managment section of the business, who also, dont understand programming.

that's what I'm talking about! it must be almost impossible to get a group of programmers under one hat if you don't know anything about app development and try to let them get something....
[addsig]

well, he hires programmers, they get sick of workin under these conditions as the project isnt their line of work, they leave, they hire someone else, this keeps goin till the right person is found.
(-:
Welcome to the real world

I took the green pill
[addsig]

Mr Anderson

Neo please
[addsig]

* Train comes and wipes nasty agent out, Mr And... Neo runs off p the stairs only to be stopped by the sound of the train screamin to a hault, in which the agent exits. Neo runs off. *
I love that movie, May 15th 2003 for Matrix 2, October for Matrix 3, they say the ending of 2 will be very suspencful, and thats why the releaseing 3 so soon after.

Cant wait
(-:

my, I wanna see that movie too, even the preview trailer look awsome! way better than _any_ movies I've ever seen up to now
[addsig]

Damn Straight
