    A "coupon" for changing the name of your bas child? damn dude, some things should be paid in full. I'm sorry to hear that thispego
    household is still not doing so well. Hey, if you didn't get all those speeding tickets, maybe you could have gotten that better job, remembah?
    You don't always look for ways to cut costs? I'm sorry but that's just foolish

    Speeding tickets are off my record. I now only have 1 ticket in the past 3 years

    I was able to get in to the job I have now over a year ago despite my driving record. I've been pretty fortunate and was able to get in to something I love doing based on my other merits, they were willing to overlook the speeding tickets as long as I stayed ticket free for a year, which I completed in December. The job pays well, but as you know, our financial situation allows us to choose careers that we enjoy rather than careers that pay us the most. We already have way more than we would ever need, quarterly vacations wherever we want, just a matter of keeping ourselves busy in between.

    Things really looking good for ol' pego

    On a silver lining note, the US does have the best educated barristas in the world. So there's something for us to feel good about.
    Agreed, I had Starbucks this morning while studying for a math test and it was delicious.

    Bottom line is that internships/work experience trumps the GPA in most fields. Employers want people who can help their company and actually having relevant work experience is more important than being good at doing homework and studying for tests.

    Aussie I have a friend who has a degree in Film from NYU…He could not land a job that paid over 15 dollars per hour…He went back to school and became a licensed therapist…In So Cal our therapist have therapist…Our dogs see a therapist…In any case my friend is making 200k a year for asking self absorbed rich people “and how did that make you feel”…Seems to me with a degree in psychology you are more than half way there…
    Pretty sure shrinks are psychiatrists not psychologists. I think psychologists make less money and cant really prescribe medication, they act more like counselors tbh.

    You areright, Psychologists cannot prescribe things. There are also huge differences between psychologists and therapists. Psychologists usually have a PhD in Psychology and most of the time do assessments of people. They diagnosis people with disorders. Therapists also can diagnosis, but not to the extent that psychologists do. Therapists can have a number of degrees, all of which require different levels of higher education. There are LPC, MFTs and LCSWs that are all therapists and go through different training. Yes, some therapists make bank, but it takes lots of time to go through that and build up a clientele that will produce that large of an income. And as I said before some people in the right area can make a good amount of money. Military social workers (LCSWS...therapists) can start with a base salary of 80,000. My 40,000 is in a community based non-profit world not a government based job.

    rofl. Military experience is becoming more of a negative on a resume than a positive. Seeing as how they let in anyone in the military these days

    "So, can you tell me about any instance where you had a conflict with someone, and how did you solve it?"

    "There's this group of kids that used to throw rocks at me back in Afghanistan, so I shot them, then killed their families."

    truth bombs

    Joining the military basically screams, "I graduated from high school, didn't have a next step, and I have this loser cousin I always looked up to who joined the marines so that's what I did!" It's basically the opposite of real world experience as it's something people who aren't prepared for the real world and/or are scared of the world do.

    "Name a time you played the role of leader in a group project and what steps you took to lead."

    "We got orders from our commanding officer to torture Iraqi POWs in the most humiliating fashion. No one else was able to come up with erotic torture ideas, so I had to take command and mentor my squad in the methods of sexual humiliation."

    Dip s with their predictable and ignorant schtick taking the bait.

    Like it or not, the military remains among the most respected professions and there are countless initiatives to get veterans employed.

    Australia has it in their top 10. Facts fly in the face of whatever misguided stereotypes you idiots like to promote.

    Why do we need initiatives to get veterans hired? Maybe it's due to the lack of formal education and puppy cliff-throwing tendencies?

    Don't ask me...ask the executives for the dozens of Fortune 500 companies that have voluntarily ins uted the initiatives.

    My opinion would be inevitably biased, though much more informed than your ridiculous opinion.

    Look up the 100,000 Jobs Mission. Last I checked, affirmative action was government driven...not a concept of profit-seeking ins utions like Chase.

    Seriously misinformed post, but I'm not surprised. There's nothing mandatory about it.

    They advertise it as a corporate social responsibility project, i.e. something done to help image, not profits.

    You have an incredibly myopic view of those who serve and the reason they join.

    I would argue that there are just as many who go to college and grad school because they have no idea what they want to do with their lives, but they rack up thousands of dollars in student loans to check a box instead of learning a trade and getting work experience.
