@ragnarr023 what's a cert worth compared to a grade from uni if the course is the same?
-
@RakNoel
Where I'm from, apparently a lot. People tend to look up more to grade than cert here. Not the whole country, but definitely the area I stay in. -
@RakNoel
I'm not saying it doesn't.
All I'm saying is don't be a fucking asshole with your A and verbally dictate to people that you have one and immediately assume you're better than they are.
That's the point.
Hypothetical the above by the way. -
@RakNoel
Im happy that you're good at it. It's a vote of confidence, having a degree.
Just seen too many fuckheads with degrees who don't know what the fuck is going on.
But that's usually due to lack of experience. -
@ragnarr023 im afraid my experience outside of uni is NULL 😂
Qualification != proficiency
Worked at a company where this bloke (Jepediah mcShitFart we shall call him) had enough programming certs and qualifications to fill a page.
I was the one fixing his fuck ups, because he coded like his ass, debugged like his ass, talked like an ass, and used to shrug off responsibility like an ass. Hr did nothing because he 'was a long time employee'.
Plus, I have met hundreds of programmers who would put many to shame, and they don't have a single qualification.
