Yea, you'd imagine....
Toll Booths huh? I guess that is an accomplishment... Hell, I'll bet you
won't go to college either right? Sure defeats all of the EE's that go
to college for 4 - 6 years... I'd just be like "nah fuck it, I can
design my own stuff and sell it to major companies..." It is OK, I don't
know how you got assigned to program toll booths, but personally, I
wouldn't consider that an accomplishment to myself. Anyone could
"program a toll booth" it is just a person feels special to be picked by
the government to do it. Now on the other hand, to make something as
kick ass as a MP3 portable player, that can store an endless amount of
songs for $75 + HDD, now thats just fucking amazing and I'd be running
around the city naked yelling my ass off.
No offense. Programming Toll booths is good for 10th grade.
