    There are tons of jobs.
    There are tons of over qualified people who cant hold down a job that requires accountability or attention spans or thick skins or actual work.

    Of course in those jobs you have to commute for an hour each way to make a shitty amount where you can make enough to support a home so you either have roomates or get married and both work full time shitty jobs so you can live in a slightly less shitty part of town than you grew up in with enough rooms for each adult in the household that doesnt fuck another adult. Fuckers have to share a room.
    Your kids get to go to shitty schools and have shitty friends be victimized by predators of every star, stripe, and cloth then get to go to a community college for 5 years while working at Starbucks and being caught victim by some stupid music/culture/fashion scene cult which leads to mass consumerism which sets a horrible example to your kids who lets face it have a really good chance of being pretty shitty kids at this point.

    This gene pool after 3/4 generations of this become Anaheim residents.
    If huh? couldnt get into Yorba Linda he should have ditched OC and just move across to Norco and live within his grade.
    Norco is not too bad, if you like horses, big rigs, and dust.

    my buddy who's still a general contractor and i use to laugh all the time about finding a job
    we had to find a fucking job every single day
    im still a general in license but don't really use it much
    but i owe much of what i learned and who i met
    the fact that you are out in the world is an actual education all its own
    and you see what doors are open and which are closed pretty quick
    thats true street smarts along w my time as a young street urchin
    its rare, if ever, that i meet young people willing to work that hard
    you have to channel your inner hustler and start somewhere
    but anymore its like its owed to you and the attitudes are absurd
    that world dgaf about what you are or what you believe in
    perform bitch

    So is the future here yet, or is it tomorrow?
    The future lasts only one day then, then it become the past?

    As if YOU knew so much different.
    Yeah you DO know it's the truth, that's right it was YOU posting with pride your girl getting into UCLA
    because the future is so bright with a high school degree.
    Left side of mouth meet right side of mouth, no more posting until you two get along
    The career paths in 2017 are not at all what they were in 1977
    Which is what my post explained. And then Rube explained using different words.
    No education = dim future.

    Are YOU really arguing that point?

    And a bit jockey like YOU knows so much about the trades too do you?
    Hired so many plumbers or elextricians without formal education and certifications have you?
    Know so much about patient care that your LVN doesn't need education? Mine does. I personally know two LVN's (less than an RN) and each have multiple years of college. And find it difficult to find jobs, though they do because it is an impacted industry
    Construction 'hands' can work without further education provided you know someone to get you in
    But the better construction jobs (program manager, construction site manager) all need education to be able to read blueprints etc
    And only a fool works construction until his body fails, smart ones get out of ALL the trades before that happens

    All of which clearly indicate that your view from whatever bit jockey ivory tower needs its windows cleaned.

    This is a true and valid point, and as a long term business owner I agree fully.

    One question that will rarely if EVER be posed to a high school dropout
    You may not have your brothers multiple degrees but no way did you not start on first base
    I know better

    As long as money is your only science.
    Look, there are many ways to get along in this world.
    We seem to only believe in one.
    And like organized religion... organized education is not the best education.
    The education you earn on your own is much more valuable than what is taught in school.
    If you are being taught and you dont want to learn?
    That is why it is better to want to learn first. Then you dont need teachers or schools.
    School is for you to learn how to receive money without having to learn how to create money.

    I dont know what color tower you are on but those fools you talk about are the vast majority of trade workers.
    Most arent that smart. Which is not a bad thing at all. You know what smart means? It means pain.
    That smarts right?
    Very few people I have known in construction are really looking at that site manager job as a legit thing.
    Most are happy they can use their bodies to make a living for as long as they can till they can get SS.
    Construction and most trades pay above what you would make working at a factory or a warehouse or anywhere else where you are paid for what your body can do and not for whats in your head.
    Many of these people are full of wisdom full of happy and at peace with life.

    Then there is my cousin who came here at like 17. His mom married a Cuban man with some money who was a master electrician. The stepdad took him on some jobs and taught him the ropes.
    But my cousin loves to party it up and eventually was on the outs with the stepdad and ended up working construction as a drywall and painting guy. Taking the bus and walking to bus sites just trying to make enough money to go out and get fucked up and fuck some shit up.
    So the dude ends up friends with a plumber who teaches him plumbing skills. Oh and impregnates a few chicks and has like 8 kids in a short span.
    Works years construction, plumbing, electrician stuff whatever until a drinking buddy hooks him up with a dream job at Orbital a satellite company in Pomona of all places where he worked as a sort of plumber for liquids and gases inside controlled environments designed for space.
    Worked there for a few years and his company gets purchased by JPL and he gets sent to work at NASA basically.
    He has a bunch of awesome wonderful beautiful kids.
    Cheated on everybody and recently now past 50 something knocked up his neighbor and his wife Divorced him for it but everybody else forgives him on the spot because the his full of grace.
    Dude has earned it and at the same lucked into everything.
    Even when he backs into the playoffs he succeeds.
    And he is a tightwad to boot but a sweetheart enough to not get sued for child support or alimony.
    Well till he fucked the neighbor last year.
    Luckily the kids are mostly grown, but that last wife is not going to EVER remarry and risk losing them nice monthly divorce checks.

    Dude is the most blessed guy I know.
    And he deserves every bit.
    Because he knows how to be an American.

    The news over here is non-stop about Trump and his rantings

    They have trouble finding ANYONE to support his views and EVERYONE wants to blast his stance at APEC
    Not that he actually said anything in error (hard to believe coming from Trump, I know)

    They just don't like that he is standing up for the USA (after so many years of us caving to ANY other nation)
    Fuck'em they don't have to like it

    Every leader SHOULD look after his own countries best interests...
    which is all our Twit-in-Chief was saying


    Idiots are everywhere.. and their numbers are growing
    Queue the Harvey Danger lyrics...

    ^ good to see you actually are capable of giving him even the least bit of credit
    it felt good to hear a leader of this country saying what he said because none before him ever said anything close
    and you would think it would be stating what is totally obvious
    over here it was panned as "too strong" and "out of touch w the reality"
    maybe nothing changes at all but it sure felt good to hear at least one leader of the US say it
    its not chinas fault
    our "leaders" haven't had the balls to say anything close to that for decades
    they've been laughing at how easy its been to take over the world
    probably inspired by the challenge since butt raping barry and bushes was undoubtedly getting boring
