yeah I know that feeling I will be 28 in september and I start back to school in January. going to work on my associates in general education and then
pursuing a degree to become a Social Worker.... thats going to be a bitch balancing a full time loss prevention job at wal mart, a part time job at
albertsons as a grocery stocker and a full time Filipino girlfriend... But its much needed... even though I truely enjoy my job reaching out to
troubled youth and more is more of a calling for me if you know what I mean. If you know me irl then you will know what I mean... its in my heart

All of the late school bloomers- don't sweat it, it's never too late. I got my BA in 1998 (I was 27) and had started working on it in 1989. I got
my masters 5 years later.
Right now I am editing newsletters about SAP business data systems. It sucks a lot. It could be worse but it's boring, the people I work with are
weird, and I have to drive here which I hate and is stupid b/c I pay city rent.
I am looking for another sellout job that pays better and is in the city, which I plan to do for a year or so (unless I move out of here sooner) and
pay off some debts. Then I want to scale down and either go back for my phD or work at somehting idealistic like animal rights or both.

VP of Midwest Sales for a Staffing company. I work out of a home office. My boss is one of the best guys in the world and I really enjoy what I do.
I'm not sure if that kicks ass or not.

i work retail, but i get paid well cause its an independent store ( not a franchise or big corporation ).
i put myself through community college and got an Associates Degree in graphic design, so sooner or later i will get a serious job.
for now my job is easy and it pays the bills.
\"thank you very little\"
