lotsa these kids are afraid/too good/don't want to get dirty with trade/labor sorta work.
they have BS degrees (myself included) and feel entitled to glitz and glamour and lawyer pay (see ows)...meanwhile, there is plenty of folks making a go of it doing tradework, firefighting, police, etc that require more hands on skills and apprenticeship style training as opposed to a BA in African American liberation studies or Post-Modern Feministic thought sorta degrees.
i sometimes wish i skipped the whole college BS time of my life and got est. into my career that i'm in now...i'd be making much more money, i'd have a better retirement, and i wouldn't have the college loan assholes breathing down my neck...i did glean some overall good skills in college, so it wasn't a complete waste, but compared to the cost and time it took, it proly wasn't worth it for me.
