Money is not an issue as long at it pays the bills I rather work in a job that made me happy then one that made me rich.
Do you have an idea of what you'd like to do? if your choice of career is just as stable, financially speaking, then the following doesn't really apply.

About money: have you considered what sort of life would make you happy? are you going to be someone whose life revolves around his career and loves it? or do you want to spend lots of time travelling, shopping, owning cool cars and such? basically, would you be happier with a life that's focused on achieving something through your career, or would you be happier with using money to enjoy life?

Just saying, cos i used to think money isn't an issue for me, until i realized i have rather expensive goals. Also a friend told me that a career doesn't have to be all that your life is about, but it is a huge chunk of it.

I just want to be happy with somebody and have a job I love. Perferable helping humanity in some way.

You may want to look into it and see if you have the prerequisites to do the courses you like, around here, sometimes you have to retake high school credits to qualify for uni programs.

Oh Pshaw. The odds are against anything like that happening to you. Just grow a set and go talk to the recruiter.

I quit my job, drove immediately to a recruiter and signed up for 6 years. Left for bootcamp 14 days later.

It was the best decision I've ever made in my life.

Drop out and join the military.

You did see the part about it being the British Army, right?

Well I can't see the video till I get home. It's blocked here.

What's so bad about the British military? I met a bunch of them when I was in. They looked like they were happy and healthy blokes.

Wait for the video.

Oh, Monty Python. Good stuff.

I remember this old Saturday Night Live skit where a British officer is casually walking around his camp during a Zulu attack and everyone is fighting and dying around him. He's all calm and collected drinking his tea and speaking british sayings. Hilarious. Also closer to reality than us Americans think.

During WWII a combined British/American force had routed a German division. The Germans were pulling back to a bridge and were getting ready to blow it up. The Americans and British are hauling ass to get there before they blew it and stop them.

When all of a sudden the British stopped, started fires, and starting making tea. It was tea time for crying out loud. They weren't barbarians. The Americans freaked, called them nuts, and kept racing.

The Americans saved that bridge and the British had their tea. All in all a pretty chipper morning all around.

Also on D-Day on one of the beaches some British officer was casually strolling back and forth on the beach with a map, smoking a pipe, and inspecting everything like he was looking over a piece of property he was considering buying.

All the time the Germans are raking the beach with machine guns and people are dying all around him.

I don't even think the crazy bastard got a scratch.

That's always impressed me about the British even while simultaneously thinking they're crazy as shit to act like that.

Did anyone here see a huge cat right at the beginning of the video?

Not that I am currently hiring or firing anybody, I'm a uni student as well, but if/when I am in a position to do so, any resume's with "majored in entrepreneurship" are first in the shredder, along with other useless degrees.

Jus saying.

Stupid Americans.
