The last paragraph tells the whole story. The degree's are meaningless. India has the worst colleges in the world, they don't teach you to do anything except get a degree. "Millions of job seekers have impressive sounding diplomas but don't actually have the skills promised by their certificates from substandard colleges and technical institutes." If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose. |

And how exactly is this different from half the USA? War is peace. Freedom is slavery. Ignorance is strength |

Colleges in India are incompetent from the top down. It's almost impossible to get a good education in most of them. In US colleges, you can get an education if you want one and apply yourself at almost any college. For instance, my daughter is head of her dept at a college and she says she knows a few undedicated teachers there, but none of them are incompetent. You're referencing students in the US, more than the schools they attend. If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose. |

Between graduation rates and what students study, only about 1/3 are getting value for their dollar. War is peace. Freedom is slavery. Ignorance is strength |

| AZDuffman Member since: Oct 24, 2012 Threads: 137 Posts: 21195 | Family sues Terminix; son unable to walk after fumigation. Mainly putting this up because of it being my old industry and employer. This saddens me because it reminds me of all the corner-cutting I saw in my time. Just-get-it-done mentality. Statewide training meetings canceled because we were "having a bad month." More concern about paperwork than the actual training in many cases. Just needed to rant as over a decade later it seems things don't change, discuss if you all like. War is peace. Freedom is slavery. Ignorance is strength |

Heck, in foreign countries they don't have classes or even people who can read the labels. People in Thailand die from fumes in hotel rooms that are treated with an exterior only chemical. some USA homeowners have cement water runoff devices that are installed directing rain water towards the foundation it takes the chemicals with it. Insecticide is dilute nerve gas, period. |

Similar crap happens here. What happens is customer calls, yelling "I WANT SOMEONE HERE **NOW**" so they send someone. Anyone. We were limited in what we could even use because so many people were so wreclkless. War is peace. Freedom is slavery. Ignorance is strength |

http://www.rawstory.com/2015/09/texas-man-busted-for-falsely-accusing-blacklivesmatter-supporters-of-vandalizing-his-truck/ Will the leaders in the conservative movement against Blacklivesmatter condemn or defend Defend outright? Maybe not. Deafening silence? Yes, that I could see. Conservatives has a similar "circle the wagons" mentality Sometimes we live no particular way but our own - Grateful Dead "Eyes of the World" |
