What frustrates me the most is that I hire college graduates who don't have intermediary math and logic skills...and I have to teach them what I would otherwise expect to have become intuitive knowledge to them.
Is this because some teacher didn't care? I don't think so...it's because of a system that doesn't expect them to acquire this knowledge as part of their education...and I'm of course referring to higher education at this point...
