I had to interview a new intern this weekend. These interviews are the last step before they come out into the field with a team. During the last couple years, I have noticed something changing about the candidates  in that they are all lazy apathetic wastes of my energy. They are just box checkers.
I hate box checkers.
A Box Checker is someone that just does something because it is either the social norm or someone that does something just because that action will make them look better in the eyes of the public.
Why did you go to College? Because my parents told me to.
Why did you major in CS? Because I wanted to make a lot of money.
What was your inspiration and favorite part of your time abroad to study?  A bunch of my friends signed up for it and we all got to party in London.
I would kill for someone that just wanted to learn because they didn't know something. How hard is it to want to discover something about yourself while working toward a goal that you, yourself wants to accomplish?
Grr..... My opinion doesn't really matter anyway. These wastes of air will most likely be taken on for the summer and most likely will just use the time they spend with us as just another check in a box on the path that their parents have set them upon.
