22. Moving from "half-ancient" to "three quarters-ancient" in four months.

Luckily, I'm not quite yet in the oldest bracket - how horribly ancient those people of above 30 years old must be.

Ah crap, all this poll achieved is put me in the majority.

 

[Jolty]

I'm 19. It appears that most of you are around my age. That's good, I'm used to either being the oldest or the youngest by a large margin.

I'm slowly but surely realizing that those 6 "above 30" are actually band members

Long live dt

Its a pity hyena didnt make the poll open, so that we could actually see the voters, but I think youre right (and so is probably hyena, the ones who want to keep their age a private business can do so).

And geriatrically speaking, Im tipping the scales in July (nice one rahvin! )

I'm 24. Will turn 25 this summer. Interesting poll !

:zombie: And already an engineer.. wow. Yay for the german system, huh? I lost one year with a bad choice for my studies, never repeated a class at school and Im in the second year of my studies.. at 23 :Smug:

Then again, you'll probably come out a little better off for it. I'm not quite sure how things work over there. Do you guys have Bachelor's and Master's programs?

I'm not actually a licensed engineer. That takes about 5 years at the minimum after getting out of school. I'm thinking of taking the first part of the test (thus starting the 5 year countdown) next year. They only offer the test in April, as far as I know, and I'm not prepared to take it this year.

Im in one of the last years that will get a Diplom, which is comparable with a Master certificate, both take 5 years (in theory ). The only difference is that the basic studies (Grundstudium) last only 2 years, where a Bachelor lasts 3.
If you're not a licensed engineer, what are you then and what did you study? Cant you skip a year or two afterwards, since you already worked as an engineer?

 

[Kovenant84]

Not to steer this too off topic, but getting a Professional Engineer's license takes 5 years at the minimum. Basically, you take the first part of the test (8 hours), which can normally only be taken in your last year, and then you need 5 years of work experience (some of which can be spent doing a Master's degree - I only have a bachelor's) in the field, before you can take the second half of the test and get licensed. Basically, you have to work as someone's lackey for five years or so. It's basically a safety thing - because as a PE, you can sign off on building plans and the like, so they want to make sure you have actual work experience.

So, basically if I took the test this year, I could get licensed (assuming I passed both halves) by the time I'm 28.

I would think the under 15 would/should be the highest because I find most forum members to be very childish.
Even though its very impolite and shows a lack of good manners asking someone their age, when I'm asked, at
one time I would always say I'm 69 but now when it comes up now I say I'm 77 because
77 is much better than 69 because you get 8 more

Speaking of age, I believe it's time for someone to add a year to Her total
Happy birthday, wildfyr

Why?? :Smug:

 

[Dafne]

actually i think its the most polite way...

btw i'm one of those 8 over 30!
and i'm not a DT band member...

 

[stardrowned]

and i'm not a DT band member...

Really?

 

[Matse]

... and I thought all of those 8 over 30 were DT members.

 

[Dafne]

ok ok....
i've been caught...
actually i'm the mirror identity (?)of Martin H....

 

[stardrowned]

dt are 6 members as far as I know.

 

[rahvin]

Yes. Matse used a weapon best known in the western world as "irony". Its blade cuts deep, and the wounds rarely heal proper.

edit: @Dafne: say, what are you doing rambling on on the Internet, of all places, you Metuselah? You're just obsolete, with your old age and possibly decaying corpse-like flesh! I'm going to take it out on you for the next 52 days!*


*until I'm 30.

 

[Dafne]

@rahvin: I may be old but surely not obsolete and my flesh is fresher than ever....

about you.... not sure about your state at the threshold of your 30s...-------> :zombie: :zombie: <-------
