Virginia House Makes Rolling Right Turn Reckless Driving

I'm a computer scientist. It's like an engineer who didn't need to know math.

I'm currently majoring in chemical engineering. We're using Laplace transforms in my process control class, but I've never heard of the Z transform. Is that when a Z becomes a transformers robot? Lol jk

where you going to school at?

You didn't fail math, you were just scared of it. Lol.

Didn't realize how many engineers and "almost engineers" we had here. We should start an EngineerZ club.

Haha, I'm just ribbing you. The market for CS guys is much better than it is for EE guys right now anyways.

It's all good, br0. My best friend and his bride-to-be are both big shot engineers. I have mad respect. It's not easy!

Nice, there's quite a few engineering/cs people around here from what I can tell. I'm a DSP/wireless engineer. I wouldn't really say that the job market is worse for EE than for CS, especially if you got your masters. I was interviewing for work fresh out of grad school two years ago right when the recession hit and had no problem getting a job. Some of my CS buddies struggled for a bit around the same time.

Are you gonna be at the next MD meet? I will see you there if you decide to go. I appreciate the help.

I was gonna go to the job fair they're having this week, but those things are completely useless for summer internships. In the fall they tell you to come back in the spring. In the spring they just tell you to apply online. Some companies don't even take resumes there. Last year we weren't even allowed to shake hands
