I'm not the parent poster, but I agree with him.

I'm no precious snowflake. But I am better than a lot of other programmers, which is why they have been fired and I haven't. None of us are irreplaceable, but some of us are worth our money (and a whole lot more) and won't be fired. I make sure to treat my employer as a customer and supply him with high value products for the money he pays me every month.

I notice the world around me, and I feel for you that you are so desperate for a job - any job.

On the other hand: If you can get a job now, then in four years you'll have four years of actual work experience which is worth far more than four years of schooling.

I have had my share of fresh out of school co-workers, and wouldn't recommend anyone with less than 5 years of work experience to my employer ever. I say go and get the work experience if you can. It'll be worth far more in four years. And with four years of work experience no one will care about a diploma which is outdated the year after you get it anyway.

In Britain, ton is colloquially used to refer to 100 of a given unit.

I believe you are about right. About 100 people might be using Vista every day and have no problem with it ;)
