Figure out a location you might want to go to.
Call them if interested and to speak to the head person, if you have other questions or want to sit in on a class.
Its not a fluke, there are similar schools popping up.
Figure which coding area you want to focus in on, do some research on it, etc.
Most important, they actively look for job placements for you

They have minority scholarships that will pay for a portion.

To me it seems like a great move. 3 months, go from an amateur to career ready in a highdemand and well paid field. 1K downpayment or so, and the rest paid off in installments. Have skill(s) useful in multiple industries.

If I was high school senior I would try to see if I could do a session over a summer before going to 2 year or 4 year school....:whew:....Or just do it before going into a university if you not expecting scholarships. Or if just graduated undergrad, even my degree is not related, I would do it just to have an extra skill like this.

EDIT: My mistake, the total cost for full time is 12K, part time is 4K, but you still don't pay it all at once. http://theironyard.com/courses/tuition/
Thanks breh. Ill look into t.

White bum came up to me in Newark and tried this saaame shyt....tried to tell me that he was a boxing trainer from Jersey City and thats he stranded and cant get back home :duck:...I just gave him a look like really:comeon:...first off there aint no buses that go to Jersey City in the area, the last boxing club that was in the neighborhood closed years ago and if you really wanted to get some money this aint the area you wanna be in...I told him "nah i aint got it" and kept it movin....I give money to the homeless all the time but the quickest way to not get shyt from me is to start lying

This thread is funny but we need to acknowledge there are some good bums out there. My pop used to tell a story about how he got locked out of his hotel one night and a good bum saved him from a pack of bad ones. The bum knew about a side entrance that was open so he told the bad bums to beat it and escorted my pop to the secret entrance. :ehh:

white people beggars be on the same sht too they just go about it differently....they hit you with the " :sadbron: excuse me sir we are stranded :sadbron: we have an emergency and need to get our 'mother' to the hospital :sadbron: can you please help us with some gas :sadbron:" ....they usually send the innocent looking white girl from the crew to run this game :beli:




:comeon:

Honestly, I don't care about throwing a few bucks the way of anyone who asks for it and looks like they need it. Probably because I've been stranded without money plenty of times. Not when I'm coming out of the store though cause I know those dudes make a living out of that shyt.

There was a dude who clocked my pockets one time when I was like 16 or 17. I used to only walk around with enough money to maybe get a snack and just in case. I walk out of the store and dude is like "Can I get a dollar?". I respond telling him I don't even have a dollar. "But can I get the change you just put in your pocket though :skip:" .

yeah, i've given change to some like if it's a real hot day and they be lookin' like they go pass out and they need somethin' to drink
but you right, as long ain't nothin' wrong with them, they can work like everybody else
A lot of them don't want to though. I used to work at a public library that was located close to the bus depot, shelters and a mental wellness center. So, of course, we were the #1 stop in the area for them all to hang out at.

A lot of them are crazy or addicts but sadly there's also a lot that are just plain lazy. They know where to go for free food and they know where they can go to sleep and they know they can come to a place like the library and sit there all day long and get on Facebook. They don't want to be productive. They don't want to be held responsible for anything. That's how they got put out on streets in the first place. They're content to live off the kindness and generosities of others for the rest of their days.

I always wanted to sneak a peek at their FB pages and see what the fukk they were posting about. :heh:

There are some nice homeless people that I genuinely felt bad for, but the majority of what I dealt with were shady/lazy/dangerous people.

when i was in philly they would post up at wawa all the time. then i had some that would be right outside of boston market. every time i would go in, they would hold the door open. i say thank u and keep it moving. if i was a bum though, id post up at the bank. not some cheap fast food place.

I always keep this old card on me its either an expired date or changed number, one of the two.

But a bummy dude followed me into the gas station, i bought all my shyt. Then I told him to put his shyt up he had grabbed a bag of chips 2-3 drinks and a sandwich. So I pull out my wallet again, this time I grabbed the other card and when I swiped it shes goes "Uh...it was declined....." I say "what? :why: I just used it....." I swipe it again "Sorry sir.....declined."

":manny: fukk man, my bad....I guess ima have to wait until the 15th, you how it is......" Leave him standin there with a look on his face like ":childplease:"
:dwillhuh::childplease:
