VCU - such a waste
Anyone else feel like they're wasting their time going to school? I could be making anywhere between $40 - 60k working on hyundai's full time right now, but instead I'm stuck here at school learning about crap that I'll never use in real life just to start out making $35k when I'm done. This blows, seriously.

"I have never let my schooling interefere with my education." -- Mark Twain
Diploma is only a checklist item on a resume. Experience counts more in the real world. My skills and experience are at the top of my resume, universities, awards, and GPA are the lowest items there although the most prestigious.

Maybe its just in what you are studying. I am actually going to 90% (well...ok, 75%) of my classes (100% of major related courses) this semester. Im learning a LOT and im looking at the big picture in life. Gotta suffer a little to get the things you want in the end.
