I have no idea why I am wasting my time and learning C...

Well, at this point, I don't even know what to learn for getting an entry level CS job...so C is it. Reached chapter 17 of K.N.King's C99, maybe read a little bit of C2x and C2y specifications, then I'll probably start reading John Calcote's Autotools and then metalanguage99. And I bet they won't help me for my early career in any way or form.
