A young man is being forced to declare a "mathematics" major as a hurdle to prove him self worthy of an Electrical engineering major. Cappy just suggests he try ...
I'm gonna have to half disagree with you about grad school Cappy. As an
engineer you are valued a lot higher by employers if you have a masters,
but not so much for Ph.D. (with the possible exception of mechanical and
civil). I just graduated from Georgia Tech and am working in the civil
aerospace industry; from this perspective I can say the previous with
confidence. In fact they so much value a master's degree that most large
companies (Boeing, Lockheed, Northrup, Honda, Ball, Bell, Orbital, etc)
will actually pay for your graduate school if you contract to work there
for a certain amount of time afterward. I agree that you shouldn't pay for
your own graduate school, but definitely go if someone else will pay for
even part of it.
+Grigori Yefimovich Rasputin The civil side is strong. One of the nice things about buying oil from the Arabs and cheap crap from the Orientals is that they have enough money to buy our aircraft now. However, I don't have much confidence in the military side for the next decade or so because our next president will probably be either Rand or Hillary and they'll continue with downsizing the military.
Haha, that description. I've given up on schooling. It's a complete joke.
Honestly, it's strictly about passing. Actually learning the material and
comprehending it.. That part has disappeared from the education system. All
these fucking corporations give a shit about is the credential. As long as
you have the piece of paper signed by some dildo, you get some more paper
with some government turd's face on it. But wait, you have a pass a
behavioural test, first. C'mon, all the robots pass it with flying colours.
It takes Pythagorean years to come up with his theorum, and I have a week
and a bit to fully understand this dude's life's work. Don't decrease your
lifespan by taking a math course.
In an electrical program myself. I really just care about wiring my own
house, and other shit like that. Not a huge fan of bankers and their
mortgage schemes.
Wanna make money? Get into insurance. Oooh ya. Sell lottery tickets outside
your local Walmart. Omg 1 million jackpot! Omg plasma tv screens! Oh wow
I'm a consumer!
Learn various trades, market yourself. Get off the fucking grid. Become
self-reliant, so you don't need money in the first place to pay off these
corporations and their fucking property taxes.
Did you know can get arrested for resisting arrest?
I rest my case.
