ok, i just got the wrong idea when you said "all i need is for it to start working so my boss won't kill me". :) but i have to say that your boss didn't give you the opportunity to learn at all. interns by definition should always work under the supervision of a tutor, someone to show you the directions and keep you out of nightmares. if this is not the case then you are a regular developer hired with intern salary. i appreciate your commitment to get the job done but you should be more realistic about your situation and your boss. cheers. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
