Current Events > I should've listened to my dad and went to trade school

(+) Yeah! (+)

Or at least go to a community college first, graduate and then transfer credits to a 4 year university.

All my relatives care on my moma side is not about me, but to go see a dumb graduation ceremony to be inspired like it's the greatest thing in the world.

Plus I wondered if my mom and the relatives would have liked that idea

Who is your daddy and what does he do?

I have a bachelor's degree in fine arts... sociology. I did that just to graduate be done with it and so my family will be happy with a degree. Any degree even if it's some lost language. I went to college by not researching and just jumped on the chance of the first college that accepted me. I randomly decided on being a dentist with no research and then was hung on nursing because people told me

1. Need male nurses
2. Nurses make good money
3. Always have a job

Then graduate from college went to Galen. Hated that. Went to a community college, ended up being an aide which was a requirement for the nursing program.

Let's just say I screwed up and now getting a different degree.

I still work as an aide

Do you know how grueling blue collar jobs are. Yes, they get paid a lot of money early on, but it taxes your body the most. It might seem good now, but think about it after youre 30.

There's a reason not many men are nurses. Women handle all the gross stuff far better than us on an overall scale.

But, if you take care of yourself, you'll likely be better off than someone working a cushy office job and getting fat and out of shape. I know you can always go to a gym but realistically how many people do that? I work in a warehouse and I work with several older people. They're in fantastic shape.

Lets be honest, your warehouse is an outlier. Most blue collar workers I see you can tell their work has physically damaged their body and they are usually fat lol
