I just started working in a distribution center and I'm only making slightly less than I was teaching, plus once I can start getting overtime it'll top that easily.

All I do is ride around on equipment all day. I mean these 12 hour shifts are forever but :yeshrug:

I'm working a weekend shift here cause I got a part time IT job during the week just for the experience. But I might quit that and just do this :dwillhuh:
Capitalize on what you have. You have a degree. That's a stepping stone. If you get a master's degree, that opens other doors for advancement. Jobs where you sit in a chair and do stupid stuff like make powerpoint presentations or whatever that keeps your fingernails clean, not manual labor. If you can get an MBA, then more power to you. If you can parlay your part-time IT job into a full-time IT job, then go for that, if that possibility comes up.

Now who else wanna fukk with Hollywood Court?
Teaching? You got a degree in education? Honestly, you could get a simple cert, a TEFOL, and teach abroad for a few months and make bank while living a relatively good life. @Malta knows all about that.

@Smoke not trying to hear that, they don't got big girls like that abroad :whoa:

People still JUST NOW realizing that college is a scam/waste of time unless you seriously plan on getting into a high-paying profession, like a doctor
It isn't a waste if you are a social butterfly and work into circles of people that can take care of you. Just going to "Get enriched" is a fukking waste of time. A semester worth of work can be found and practiced till proficiency within 2 weeks with google and a library card. Too bad there isn't an institution where you can just take a test to get a degree, cause fukk sitting through classes. I would drop a couple hundred to take a test and dip.

It was like that when I did my CNA trainng. They don't pay shyt. You do the toughest work. I ended up just keeping my school job for a few yrs after and making more. Now I'm trying to get in a BSN program.
