I applied for a tech position once and the test they gave me I got all but one question correct. The question I got wrong? What does DSL stand for.

Why exactly should we believe anything they say when there is a conflict of interest to do what is necessary to generate ratings? Its quite simple really. Get people mad at the way things are they tell them its everyone elses fault. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Awards

Bullshit. The study says that only 2,392 adults took the test. Basically that article is COMPLETELY UNFOUNDED. Fun Fact: 0.0007% of Americans were sampled for that "study". Which Americans were sampled? Who knows! They could easily find that many hobos in any town. Edited March 7, 2014 by eidolonFIRE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am sure there are quite a few that know HTML and never got laid... but instead pay good money to get led around by a chain and spanked. Lots of people in the world.
