i learned most things on the job or in life and i have to fix the things that the great DR's and PHD's are not smart enought to figure out but they call me and act like that are so much better but still they have to have someone else to come and get their printer or pc working ...... @#$%%$$%
There's a bunch of smart mo fo's in here! Not me..
I got bored with school and dropped out in the 10th grade~ Tried a couple of vocational schools and then took a Jr. College course in Private Investigations~ Never went anywhere with that either~ Like Rhythm. it was all School of Hard Knocks from there~ Then I learned it's not what you know, but who you know.. I landed an entry level position in Building Maintenance~ Now I'm the Assistant Manager for a Medical Arts Building making quite a bit an hour~ Whoda thought...
**Disclaimer, for all the kiddies reading this post~ I got extremely lucky! Stay in school and be somebody!! School is cool**

when your childhood consisted of hanging out at a car dealership ya learn stuff.. stuff that makes ya money in the future... not great money.. but hell i got a 'busa, and a tahoe.. haha both on credit, that'll do till something better comes along.
if that goes ta' #### I'll just be a trucker like Bj, -n da bear like I wanted to when I was little.
Pisses me off when I think about how hard I worked to complete all my college. Currently working on my MBA with a concentration in Marketing. My completed degrees include: Bachelor of Science in Marketing and Management and an Associates degree in Finance. All of that and I'm still a Lab Technician (15 years on Arpil 24th) at a major oil refinery... Go figure! Instead of being miserable I just wake up and THANK GOD each and every day because I at least have a job to go to. I desperately want to do something else because my job is too redundant and poses no challenges for me. Anybody hiring?
I joined the Air Force as soon as I left high school, by the time I was out I had a wife and two kids. I started working at the first job I found and have been in that line of work now for just over 15 years. No college, but I make enough that my wife doesn't need to work out of the home and I have very few bills. (no credit cards). I really can't complain, as a teenager I never saw anything more for me than building a little shack to live in on the family farm up in Missouri.
I'm in my 3rd year. Currently attending a JC college taking all my lower case courses. I'm majoring in Electrical Engineering, although that made change because now-a-days computers do most of the engineering. I'm a electrical foreman currently building a 7 story highrise apartment complex 3 miles from downtown L.A. After 22 years of of being in the trade, I decided 3 years ago to get my degree because I was tried of playing in the dirt, and felt I needed a change. Construction Management was my minor, but now its going to be my major this way I'll be done sooner and still work for the same company just not in the DIRT.

PS, The pay is better for Construction Manager's $$$,$$$.
People always call me a smartazz so however smart that is, graduated high school started partying thought about college, that took money not gave it back, so I went to work that was all she wrote
