Obsessive-compulsive disorder linked to piety. Having been born, baptised and confirmed spending my first 8 years of schooling at St. Mary’s the connection doesn’t surprise me in the least. One thing Catholics have on most of the other Christian derivatives is ritualist compulsive behavior. Metafilter has discussion.
I don’t buy the so-called skills gap as the reason enterprises aren’t hiring IT workers. The skills are there, but enterprises are determined to squeeze more productivity out of current employees.
Currently in the job search, and having been in the search every couple of years, I have seen a couple of factors that create the “we need more IT prople” vs. “hey I’m IT hire me”.
First for many reasons the IT industry has developed a Mercenary mentality. Both employers and employees have little to no intrest in seeing each other’s long term success.
The second problem, employeers desiring skills so specific, thus requiring no training. I see the real skills of a quality IT worker being ignored, adaptability. Knowing a specific language, application, operation system may get one through today but adaptability will get the employerer through all the changes of the industry.

Let’s be honest — when was the last time a carrot ejaculated on you at the salad bar?
With a quote like that you have to read. But seriously I don’t think there is anything I can add that will not later come back to haunt me. Though If I have any femail readers feel free to comment.
