07:56:33 Hummer @Celeste, I tried looking into trade school, but around here all the trade schools require you to take GEs still. |
07:56:14 Void Malign One major was enough for me lol |
07:56:07 Vetta/Chrome That's what I'm going for hopefully, equine sciences I have connections as well, I live in college station (A&M college town) so I know people :p |
07:55:51 Hummer @Celeste what do you do for a job in childcare? I worked at an elementary school for a little bit, but started having autistic meltdowns from the screaming kids. |
07:55:45 Celeste 🌕 There are plenty! You can get certificates in so much stuff that only requires a minimal amount of higher ed. My school is hiring right now- no certification needed for the ParaProfessional position. |
07:55:35 Sun's Shiny PON/SH For real Sav, that's awesome though! I am fortunate enough to not have student loans, despite the expensive out of state tuition. My grandparents have college funds for all of us grandkids <3 |
07:55:26 Ani | Ant 🌚 i want to be an equine vet. |
07:54:40 Vetta/Chrome I'm going for the equestrian team and majoring in animal science hopefully :D |
07:54:05 Sav Oh fuck Sun, thats horrid. I had that issue coming in, 60 credits almost dropped since it was a community to four years. Luckily it all transferred, now I am double majoring and double minoring in four years :`) |
07:53:55 Celeste 🌕 Also- are you really gonna have a load of money if you are paying back to debt you owe for college? Because even public unis are super expensive. |
07:53:55 Hummer @Celeste, I hate college, but couldn't think of a job I could do that didn't require a college degree. |
07:53:49 Sun's Shiny PON/SH Thank you. The job search after graduation is rough though, I feel that Savy. |
07:53:17 Vetta/Chrome Society is encouraging a lot of awful things right now, just scared we will have what's his face for another 4 years and 8 years in a row for him In office means I won't be able to afford college or anything else |
07:53:08 Ani | Ant 🌚 King
congrats, you earned your diploma :) |
07:52:55 Sav I graduated high school with my associates degree. Has not helped me land a job. I still work minimum wage. I also help out in a lab with research rats, but that is just for brownie points with my major :P |
07:52:46 Celeste 🌕 Honestly? College is not for everyone. I went for a year and a half. Social Work major Criminal Justice minor. Had big dreams but unfortunately my rampant mental health issues and sensory issues took over. I was unable to do anything without having a meltdown. So, I dropped out and began my career in childcare in 2019. I have not looked back. And I own a home and two cars, fully paid off too. And am able to pay my bills + do horses |
07:52:34 Sun's Shiny PON/SH Yess, I almost was behind when I transferred but I said fuck no and took some summer classes to get back on track. Wasn't even my fucking fault, the admissions at the uni I transferred to told me everything would transfer, and it didn't. Been working my ass off these last two years. |
07:52:08 Hummer First of all, general education classes are a waste of time. Second, we as a society encourage college waaay too much. Third, is just a money making scheme. |
