I look forward to school less and less each year. Your summer vacation was short! I still a couple weeks of mine left. Then I'll get to deal with the ignorant rednecks. Joy.

gee...wait till you guys start working. There is no such thing as a 2-3 month summer vacation from work.


The most I get is 2 weeks per year.

3 weeks after I been with the company over 10 years.

Sounds like my boss. She almost never takes days off. Some jobs have months of time off, like archeaologists who work during the summer (or teachers). But then you gotta find another job so you can pay bills and stuff. :( No luck in sight

wait.....I take it back. There is a job where you go out for 6-7 months and if you survive...you get the rest of the year off.


The Alaskan King Crab fisherman.

They can get crushed fingers, crippled hands, cracked ribs, broken feet and even death fishing for those crabs. They get plenty of money for doing it to!!

It's like some insane amount of money, like almost a million dollors or something

Yeah! Crab fishermen! You make so much money! You hardly get any sleep too. And you have to be careful with the crabs. If one dies, it lets out this chemical which can kill the other crabs it's with, who then let out more chemical and kill more crabs they're with! It's a tough job.

Y'know... he asked this morning for people to stop making fun of his spelling. Yet since then I have actually seen an increase in the rate at which people are doing it. Please stop antagonizing him, everyone. Okay?

I feel the need to respond because I noticed everyone else was just kidding around.

JK means Just kidding, Anubis.

Or if you don't get a job and have to go self-employed, here's some words of wisdom:

When you're self-employed, you can work any 72 hours of the week you want! :splodey:

2-3 Month Vacation? Hand it over, I'll take it. :lovestruck:

Thinking of working life scares me :lol: No summer breaks. Not even Spring break or Winter break :( You deal with the stupid people at work more than you deal with them in one school year. And you don't get any long breaks to let everything go cold again. This may prove deadly in my workplace.... :evil: <--interpret as evil grin

I love school. High school always went at such a slow pace, though. Thankfully, my school had a 'Running Start' program, which allowed me to start taking college classes two years early (and even paid tuition!). Now I have two Associate of Art degrees (the regular and the Science Option, with honors) and I'm working on my Bachelor of Science (in Computing and Software Systems) at the University of Washington (my current GPA is 3.96 after one year). I plan on continuing on to a Master of Science.

Did I mention, I love school?

There are times where I wished I kept going to school to learn something. But no. I had it rough. Life was really bad. So I joined the military to escape from it all. Thats where I became a truck driver.

We have a college program like that at my school. If can get an associate's degree before I go to college, I can get a huge tuition fee deduction from Utah colleges/universities. I get to take college this year. I'm looking forward to those more than my classes because they're same freaking thing. Except for chemistry.

Yeah, seriously, it might seem like a drag but you're getting the building blocks now. Without them, the world will <b>PASS YOU BY</b> and you won't amount to the dust on its heels.

Bail now and you won't be making any statement, you won't be making a bid for freedom, you'll just be screwing yourself without lubrication. Once you graduate, that's it, you're in the fight and it ain't no dress rehearsal. Arm up, get tanked, come out fighting, Wolves!

I'm graduating. There's plenty of people around me to look at who didn't and where they ain't purdy. It sucks, it's boring, but if I want a career, I gotta do it. I wish I could test out of some my classes though. Like US History. 2 years of it before this just wasn't enough :roll: Ah well. Easy A :D
