So Tired of the Hype

Beat that drum, Deb. All your posts are warnings about what you think happens if someone doesn't attend M-Tec or Andrews. Where do you get your information?

Are the people lying about not getting jobs? They are often, I feel, not upfront about exactly where they attended school, or if they did. Or if they are competent.

Did you see the other board? Go read the post about "doing the math." 100,000 REGISTERED MTs -- who knows how many unregistered -- they didn't all go to the Big 2 or Big 3 MT schools, honey. Far from it.

Only a tiny percentage of working MTs attended the schools you so elevate.

Literally tens of thousands of people working as MTs who did NOT attend those schools.

GOSH, they were all LUCKY, eh???? All 99,000 thousand just lucked out.

This board is starting to just sound like those spammed forums!!! "M-tec," "Andrews" "M-Tec" "Andrews."

Where are M-Tec and Andrews in terms of professionalism? If they had a professional attitude, they'd make sure to tell their little grads to stop trashing other schools and to stop spreading RUMORS that they are the only places to go.

Thanks, I said I was tired...

I am so tired...
of the negative attitude on these forums. Maybe those who hate this field so much should move on so the rest of us can continue to be happily employed.
