    That's getting more difficult; as the compiler and JIT optimise a lot of your bad programming without you knowing.

I gather that there were drug dealers, fights, etc going on outside his front door. His landlord was wiser than him and locked him into a minimum six month contract so he couldn’t leave before.
        How did this happen? Who's to blame? Well certainly there are those more responsible than others, and they will be held accountable, but again truth be told, if you're looking for the guilty, you need only look into a mirror.

            I had similar rates when i was in uni n worked in call centre,Next, WH Smith etc......

            However if im on bench and really desperate, i might go for it only if 'work from home' option is available.

            FFS no1 in his/ her right mind will ever be interested in that and spending aprox a quid/litre. I never heard of this place(Kidderminster) before, google map suggested its closer to 2 places which iv ever heard of Bham and Worcestor...

              Good! Not all lost for you then: I recommend you start at 8am on Saturday however, not "next week".

                Why it is the foundation of the great carpet industry of Britain.
                Wonder if this gig is for a carpet manufacturer? Could they be using dream'weaver' for web design?

                  Yeah went to lecture on "Writing tulip code in C#", and he showed that most of the mistakes that could be made in previous versions of .net / vb / C, were all solved by the complier.

                    The compiler is not yet intelligent enough to restructure crap architecture however. Some of the garbage I've seen..the developers must have gone to the "writing unintelligible shyte in .NET" lecture.

                      Yeah, it's nice to know that most developers are tulip. Gives us some hope our skills will be required in the future.
