So I wanna start coding/programming.
I have nothing better to do with all the hours on school days ( monday-friday ) so I was wondering.
If I wanted to start programing, with like VB6 or w/e it is, or c++
( Basically i want to work my way up to making a cracker )
Where should I start?

You're a moron.

Do NOT show up in groups, or even partners, to get job applications.

And don't even think about showing up for a job interview or anything past picking the job app up with ANYONE else...

So apparently going in with someone and asking for an application is a bad thing?
Note taken..

Shows that you're a pussy. If the same employee is there when you get back, theri boss may not even see the application.

I guess it could work both ways.

hes pretty right about the application/job hunting thing...it really doesn't matter too much about getting an application with someone but when you turn one in most definitely do it alone...and ask to hand it into the manager him/herself. shows a lot. and if you get an interview literally be prepared for EVERYTHING. ha I went to an interview once and expected it to be decently laid back...big mistake...i showed up to a room for the county board meetings dressed in average clothes (given i couldn't afford interview clothes yet) with THREE ppl dressed in business suits sitting at a long ass intimidating table asking me questions like "whats your biggest professional achievement?" i was 19...applying for a city daycare position...partime....so be prepared for anything even if you dont expect it :)
