You talkin' to me? I went to freaking law school. LAW SCHOOL. I'm supposed to be studying for the bar right now...so of course I'm unemployed but can potentially make more than I ever could as a lawyer in 1/3 of the hours but then there's the lack of a resume to think about. Ugh, my head hurts.

I'll take your law school and raise you six years in an ivy league applied math PhD program. SIX YEARS of misery.

Oh, yeah, lovely, expecting wife? I'm giving up a variance free $10k a month to sit at home in my underwear and gamble. That cool?

My story is better. This happened today with a customer:

Guy: What'd you do before this job?
Me: I went to college. I'm actually trained as a pilot, but...
Guy: You sell cars instead?
Me: Yeah...
Guy: Hmm...
Me: Well, I make about a billion times more doing this than I would being a pilot.

So sad. [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]

<--- Commercial Pilot, Flight Instructor (Airplane Single and Multiengine, Instrument Airplane)

Ugh.

How does completing a flight program beat out 50 billion years of college, including 6 years of applied math?

As for making a billion times more selling cars than flying... "I officially made 100 bucks last week. [censored]."

And 60 hours per week? Haven't you been doing this for like four or five days now?

Time for some of these lawyers to get on your ass for misrepresentation...
