I was told my fourth grade IQ score was 145 by a highschool counselor who
implied that it was much higher at the time she was telling me, but for
some reason was precluded from telling me my current score. But all the
IQ test shows is how good you are at taking tests...but at least I can
spell...
>You seem to judge people by the buck, do you not.
Far from it...YOU were the one who made the point that you were 'lowly'
even with your 'high IQ' and speedy typing...implying that YOU are the one
who judges people by their salary, not their accomplishments and intrinsic
worth.

Your point being...?

The fact that you feel it does not matter perhaps explains why you
continue to find yourself working in a 'lowly' position, even with your
supposedly high IQ and quick typing speed...you could be in a much higher
position if you valued spelling and grammar...

And why SHOULD he (or she)? It's not the president's job to perform the
nitty-gritty duties, but to see the bigger picture...the WORST execs I've
ever worked for were the ones who refused to MANAGE and instead insisted
on still trying to do the day-to-day nuts-and-bolts operations...

I'm a woman alone, too...never been described as 'camel lipped', whatever
THAT means...
Not that the shape or color of my lips should have ANY bearing on the
subject of this thread...

Since you obviously do NOT have the slightest clue as to what's involved
in programming, you comments on the matter amply display your stupidity
and ignorance.
