I have to totally disagree with you here... We work in groups in school
right now, You have to learn the team spirit and how to work in a group
in order to be productive in the REAL world.. Companys don't want people
who are only interested in themselves, they want people who are able to
work with a group to better the company. Maybe it's just my computer
programming/networking major. example... when you're writing a prg you
don't reinvent the wheel, you use other peoples code.. now.. you know
someone else has what you need, and they aren't a "team" player,
wouldn't you be a little more than upset that you have to rewrite that
code... besides the fact your employer wouldn't be to happy about you
taking the extra time... believe me.. that person wouldn't be there very
long.. In this world you're either a team player or you're not.. though
you better damn well learn how to be if you ever want to get anywhere...
and where's the best place to learn that? School.. at least they've
finally gotten one part of education right... Now if they'd just take
that algebra and shove it someplace I'd really be happy...
