Hey Grun, I'm looking for a good butler and a french maid. Would either of these positions interest you?

Just meant that after you apply for 10 jobs a week and go to 5 interviews and you don't even get a phone call back - which is the way these things normally work - it can be a bit disheartening.

Just keep your head down and yr powder dry and the worm will turn.

Congratulations Grun. Now the real world is back in your face. You're better prepared to deal with it on favorable terms so get ready to pound the pavement and start fresh again.

Stabby, that enlistment crack might have had some merit, if it came from someone who has done something. Why don't YOU enlist?

Grun i have one question. How many languages must somebody speak to get sutch degree ?

Here its 2 other that native language.

What about there ?
Title: I'm Done!!
Post by: GRUNHERZ on June 06, 2004, 04:13:38 AM
You have to have several years in a second language to get into most good colleges. Now, whether that means that you speak it well enough is entirely up to the individual's motivation.

As for me, I studied French and German. I've forgotten most of both because I never use them.

I want to learn Japanese, but in reality Chinese is going to be much more profitable in the near future...

Foreign Service, Grun.  That's where you want to be.
DSS are looking for Special Agents.

Han yi bu nan, ni kei xue xi zaj xue xiao :D
lol im not even sure by latin transcription :D


Here you must have at least one other that native when you enter BS studies and you have to speak and write 2 world languages when you leave.

Actualy BS degree is nothing. When you say, that you are BS here, people will laugh, coz BS is just lame who can not achieve Master degree. But it seems to be only local syndrome.

True is that specialized Secondary schools teach same stuff like Universities teach BS students.
So when you are going to University from specialezed secondary school, you will be boring first 3 years.

Grun, way to stick to it, congrats!


Stabby, how  do you get through the day with your mouth?  You must be some kind of shut in.  With your mouth, I can't imagine you surviving the day outside without gettting a foot in your rectum.

Ohhhh, I get it, the only place you have any balls in in cyberspace.
Limp wristed milquetoast in real life huh?   :lol

Sux to be you, I bet.   Almost as much as it sux having you here.

No, i am just as much of a smart bellybutton in RL as i am on the net. If people want to kick my bellybutton thats cool, but most of the time the knuckle draggers are able to act like civilized human beings.

Well done Grun!

You will now probably find that you know more academically than you will ever know for the rest of your life. It's certainly the case for lawyers.

Swot like hell for those exams and then later on, you just look up what you need.

Congrats Grun.

Did the same thing ( cum often BS degree ) while working in 4 years. Hell, I managed to get married and have a kid in meantime :D

Frankly, while it's nice to have, in practice it's just a piece of paper. RL doens't always reconsile with school, hell, it almost never does.

But good luck. What kind of company are you looking for. IT ?
If so i can have my friends check if Perot Systems ( my old employer ) has something that could be of interest.

Congrats Grun...


Management people...gotta love them!

This reminds me:

A man in a hot air balloon realized he was lost. He reduced altitude and spotted a woman below. He descended a bit more and shouted,“Excuse me, can you help me? I promised a friend I would meet him an hour ago, but I don’t know where I am.”The woman below replied, “You are in a hot air balloon hovering approximately 30 feet above the ground. You are between 40 and 41 degrees north latitude and between 59 and 60 degrees west longitude.”“You must be an engineer, “ said the balloonist.“I am,” replied the woman, “How did you know?”“Well,” answered the balloonist,“everything you told me is technically correct, but I have no idea what to make of your information, and the fact is I am still lost. Frankly, you’ve not been much help so far.”The woman responded, “You must be a manager.”“I am,” replied the balloonist, “but how did you know?”Well, “said the woman, “you don’t know where you are or where you are going. You have risen to where you are due to a large quantity of hot air.You made a promise that you have no idea how to keep, and you expect me to solve the problem. The fact is you are in exactly the same position you were in before we met, but now,somehow, it is my fault.” :D
