I can attest to that, I gladly admit that my experience with SW is <5 years, but the amount of knowledge I have aquired is current and still growing.

I will never admit knowing more than anyone, there is no guage relation to experience and knowledge. That is why I make it quite clear to our staff if you are not sure, or don't know, do not be afraid to admit it.

So you spend 6 years to graduate a 2 year course, does that make you smarter than those that graduated in less time? definately not.

From my own personal experience, people that imply themselves they are the expers in the field, usually are far from it. Being an "EXPERT" is a title that is given to you by others, not a title you give yourself.

Just my 2c,

Ken - BWA

I wonder... does anyone care enough to read signatures if you make them really small? I would not. I would probably moan and complain, read three words and swear once or twice. But since you made it this far, please rate my builds.
