IMO...Unless you major in law, med, or computers...there really is no point to college.

Heck, even computers you dont really need much education. These hackers who, well, hack...most of them never went to college, they just play with computers all day and theyre SMARTER than the people who work for the government with Masters! The government guys make anti-hacking software, then the hackers always find ways to get through it! So....do you really need college for computers either??

Or law, all you need is common sense to be a lawyer, and most lawyers dont have common sense. The law these days is a joke, a 17 year old goes to jail for getting head by a 15 year old??? Innocent people go to jail all the time, innocent people get executed. Lawyers only defend you because you're paying them too. If the other guy paid your lawyer double to go against you, he'd do it! And bankruptcy lawyers...do I even need to explain? If you wanna file for bankruptcy, you have no money! So why do they charge you $2000 to file?! Now we have the Caylee Anthony case going on...where the girl is accused of killing her daughter...yet for awhile they didn’t find a body!! How do you charge someone with murder when you havent found a body?!

Business, do you really need a Masters to know how to manage a business, when there are people who barely graduated high school and own their own business? Finance...do you really need a Bachelors to know how to manage money?!

So many people are going to graduate college, forget everything they learned, and decide to change their career paths. So many people opt to go to graduate school, get their masters, PhD....for what? When you graduate, you're gonna have so much money in college debt to payoff, and unless you majored in law, med, or computers, u probably wont make anywhere near enough to pay it off.

Look at the amount of people being laid off. 3 million were laid off last year, and of those 3 million, i guarantee at least half had college degrees, maybe Masters, PhDs. NOW those people are fighting to work at places like mcdonalds. Theres no such thing as job security, NO SUCH THING. Within 20 years, when all these immigrants who cant speak English, start to speak better english, theyll take your jobs. Those people work 100x times as hard as you do, and will do YOUR job for HALF of what you make, AND be 100x more productive.

The majority of these jobs, all you need is a month of on-the-job training, and you're set. These hispanics who cant even speak English, go and cut someones lawn and make 30 dollars for the 45 minutes it takes him to cut it. Meanwhile, you're making 25 an hour to sit at a computer wearing a suit and tie for 40-60 hours a week.

In this economy...you all think its BAD to live at home??? Quit dissing people who live at home, theyre SAVING their money.

Companies want you to think they wont hire you unless you go to college and study a bunch of courses you'll never need. Sara graduated with a 99%, and Joe graduated with a 72%, and they both got the same degree, whats the difference? No employer is ever going to ask for your grades, and they also wont ever call your college to make sure you graduated. Ive seen ads for jobs that a monkey could do, and the company says "must have a BA in...", and im like "why?!...a monkey could do that!". They think that by going to college, you become a better all around person...when in reality, you probably become an alcoholic and party slut or party jerk. My cousin is married to a girl with a Doctorate, and shes had 6 reckless driving tickets in the past 7 years, and all she talks about is how her and her lawyer friends get together and get smashed.....wow, smart people.

You the employees are much more superior than your bosses. Theres 2-3 bosses, and 4000 employees, so who do you think would win in an argument? If you want a pay raise and you're sick of kissing ass, simply STOP WORKING and go on strike til you're CEO decides to give you a pay raise. Why is it that airline pilots, lawyers, doctors all go on strike to get higher pay raises (yet they make ENOUGH), yet the people who make **** money, never go on strike??? Continue kissing ass, hating your job, and not standing up for yourself and i promise you, you'll suffer for life. EVERYWHERE i go, 80% of people HATE their jobs and job life. Thats sad. Ok actually, they LOVE their jobs...when its 5pm and theyre ready to leave, lol. But when its 6am and they gotta get up, they HATE it. When its payday, they LOVE it. When its the weekend, they LOVE it. But during the work day, they hate it.

Supervisors, bosses, executives, managers, etc...are full of crap. I used to have a job where I worked at 7am, and one time I had to work at 4am. My boss complained that I wasnt doing much and being too quiet and lazy......at 4am. Hmm, I wonder why someone would seem lazy at 4am?! I mean, were these bosses born yesterday? ITS 4AM!!

One thing thats pathetic about employers, is they expect hard work for little pay. In high school I made $8.50 an hour at UPS, $7.50 an hour at an ice cream shop. I also made $9 an hour at a grocery store, and all 3 jobs expected me to work like a dog. ....for how much per hour? No, you get what you pay for! If you want an HVAC technician to come install a new system in your house, and he offers to do it for $500, you WONT get a good system. Same goes with people. You DO NOT pay someone $8.50 an hour and expect hard work. YOU.GET.WHAT.YOU.PAY.FOR. Another thing thats funny is, companies expect you to give them 2 weeks notice before you quit...YET, if they fire you, they dont give you ANY notice, and your finances will be ruined. If you just leave, they'll replace you in a day.

You wanna know why so many of you work too much? Because you're materialistic. You have to have the top of the line car, the best apartment, you party constantly, you gotta have the best HDTV, etc.

Book smarts will only take you so far. Street smarts is what you need to survive life. And common sense. Most people ive learned, have none of that.

All a degree says is, you went to college and took courses you'll never need, and spent the money which ull now need to pay back...and ur job doesnt pay enough to let you pay it off comfortably. (Especially if you go to GW and pay 65K a year). Go look up online, the best doctors and lawyers in this country, they didnt go to Harvard, Yale, or Princeton.

Companies dont lay off workers because theyre losing money, they lay off workers because the CEO is making 2 million instead of 20 million, and that makes him sad.

People say America is the place to come for money and business, and damn, theyre right!! You can come here and make products that don’t work, charge too much, and nobody will tell you to stop. Look at these companies like Super Duper Pooper Scooper, that go to people’s houses and clean up animal crap….why are these companies not bankrupt?? Do people not know how to clean up after their own animals??? Or all these exercise products like ab trimmer, ab roller, perfect push up…..do u not know how to do a push up on your own??? Or…all these medical procedures here in the states that cost 30K, you can do in Europe for HALF the price. Or worst of all, car insurance. You pay one or two thousand a year on car insurance (maybe more), and the moment you get into an accident, some will kick you out, or just raise your rates. That’s ridiculous. If you get sick and go to the doctors office, the health insurance pays for it. So if your car has a problem, why wont car insurance pay for it? I say car insurance should start paying for car problems too. Why not? You pay so much for it!

If theres anything ive learned in my years of existence on this earth, its that people get dumber by the day. Watch the news, EVERYDAY, someones been stabbed, shot. EVERYDAY theres at least 30 accidents because people dont know how to drive and are too impatient. EVERYDAY, roads are packed no matter where you go, even on weekends, because people dont know the meaning of "stay home and save your money", instead they all gotta go out and spend. EVERY month theres a school shooting because people dont know how to treat one another. I mean come on people, GROW UP! People need to start questioning who their real friends are. Before they made tons of friends, they were smart. Then they made tons of friends, and started getting into stupid ****. A true friend, wont get you into stupid ****.

WHY is it, that America is one of the ONLY countries where people make a huge deal about education...YET, we are the only country where over half its people are in debt, over half its people are stressed, taking medication for various stress disorders, over half its people are overweight, the divorce rate is skyrocket, the suicide rate is skyrocket, the homicide rate is skyrocket, our unemployment rate is ridiculous. We are also the only country where people work over 50 hours a week. ..explain that to me? At such a young age, people should be ENJOYING their lives, not working 60 hours a week! But of course most of you dont think about this, because you're too busy thinking about when the next time you're getting drunk is, or some other unproductive ****.

Here in America, all we do is work. WORK WORK WORK WORK WORK. What kind of life is Monday thru Friday, 9-5? Thats you're entire day! 5 days a week! For a company who will probably just lay you off a few years before you retire so u dont receive full pension. Companies dont give a damn about their employees, all this "human resources" is BS. They say "we care about our employees, come to us when you have a problem". No, the moment you go to your human resources to complain about a colleague, the next day you'll get fired. It happened to me twice! Thats why i stay away from the office job world.

So Further Education has no point to it? hmm....

well it makes a difference to many, many ppl i have known thru my work (yes, i work in a college) and has enabled them to get jobs thru gaining qualifications.

It would seem to me that u have a very negative outlook on life, in every aspect.

It must suck to be u.

Wow...Quite a rant, and such insight from such a young lady.

Agree with a lot that you have said..In reality, the bottom line is, you're credentials..(unless you have a relative, that can get you're foot in the door.) They don't have the time to get to know you, its whats on the paper that counts....lol..hang tight, and don't give up..

It's a guy. Take a look at his profile. Someone pointed out this same guy on another site as well, ranting away.

The only thing I agree with GirlsAreWhack is that girls are indeed whack. But so are guys.

I like cheese.

so, what time do the meetings start, and where can I buy the book?

oops....

But girls have cooties and guys don't.

Ah yes. And girls rule and boys drool.

Where do you think they got those cooties from.....

But guys go to college to get more knowledge and girls go to Jupiter to get more stupider.

If girls are going to Jupiter they must be pretty better off than guys, being astronauts and visiting plantes and all.

Ummmm, scuse me? Whazzz a plante?

Dam...and I missed my flight.....

We were talking about cooties!!!


Psssst, this guy is looking for someplace to leave his braindroppings. I'm sure no one in his real life wants to listen, so why should we?
