New grads from top universities ...

[sasguru]

...are rubbish! Have two in my team now. Got to talking to them in t'pub yesterday and somehow the conversation came round to modern history. Turns out they'd never heard of Franco and the Spanish civil war. Or Tulipmania in Holland. Only a hazy idea of the Great depression - or even the recession of the 90s. I could go on. No wonder the idiots think debt is OK ....

Debt is ok. Must be, 99.9% of the population has it.

Not me though.

Unless you count the endless number of pints I owe people for round-shirking.

Any new grad going into IT now must be really stupid. 20 years all coding will be done offshore.
