don?t work nightshifts.

My job was briefly changed from days to nights in a failed experiment. Even though my pay increased to compensate I spent every waking hour beating my bosses over the head to try to get them to see what an awful idea it was just so I could get it changed back to normal. Working nights sucked.

Ultimate "go to college" thread right here..

seriously... :thumbsup:

Nah, education is meaningless next to connections and a flexible moral stance. After grad school with 4.0 GPA as an undergrad and grad student and paying my own way through it, I was under the delusion I'd have life decent. Instead I get to clean out retain rooms filled with the nastiest chemicals you can imagine in a shed on blacktop in the middle of Summer and get sick for a week. I catch pneumonia trying to run down a pneumonococcus contamination and almost die cause I didn't have health insurance cause when they tried to force me to release some contaminated materials I quit and turned State's evidence. I had a lot of problems finding a job after that, it's not an honest industry I work in. I worked during my undergrad and grad school, sometimes 2 jobs cause the pay sucked. Do I sit back and cry over my misfortune? Nah, but it's annoying to see threads like this.

I was in several hundred fights growing up, smart kid in a bad neighborhood. I suppose that's a large part of it, I don't fit in with the white collar crowd. When the teachers would point out to the class how I got a hundred the next highest was 50, I knew several other kids would want to fight me at given opportunity. Being put forward a couple of years didn't help at all, in fact made it worse, but I told myself it was my ticket out of the crap. Education would save me from it. I think people need to wake up and realize the American dream died before we got to live it. Yet I count myself lucky that I'm not living in a society where resources are as great as they are. Definitely a lot of people worse off so I don't feel the right to complain, what I state is more to explain.

Woah, that sucks. Why is it so hard to find a job, is it the competition?

P.S I got a good education and a great job. The thing is i always work hard.
