Wow, thos are some hard words chaps!
Sure, we all worked hard and sweated our bit to get to where we are, so some aggression may be normal.
Should the anger not be directed to the institutions that make the programs possible rater than the individuals that apply? Tell you what, if this program was availble when I started my 'sweating', I surely would have applied - especially if it was a company that had the right equiptment and salaries.
Would you have ignored such an opportunity?
