For my new job… I was hired at National City as a teller in Freeport. I have to do 2 weeks training in Pittsburgh at the Allegheny Center. I have to be there at 8am every day and usually there till about 4. The good thing its that it’s paid plus I get reimbersed for parking and milage too. Just thought I’d share with you guys :hsdance:

good now since I have a national city account can you make a bank error in my favor by about oh say 500 grand. Just do it during traing and everyone wins especially me.

x3,

Not saying they are worthless, they just don’t guarentee anthing anymore. Half my graduating class that went for degrees and can’t find shit. I know my one firend lisa went to school for 5 years got out couldn;t find a job until this past year. She was working two retail clothing jobs in the mall to make ends meet.

Another guy 4 years at Penn state for buisness and is working in a small ass movie theater.

Its fucking sad and sort of makes me glad to a point I didn;t waste 4 years just to come out in debt struggling to start paying back loans.

(just my perspective)

A college degree is only good if it is in a field that is in high demand. I did not go to college but I have a job that should have a degree attached to it. I make plenty of money and didn’t have all the loans attached. BUT… It took me longer to get there than if I had a college degree. One more point… a college degree doesn’t mean shit if you are not willing to work hard. Good jobs boil down to the same thing… work ethic, dedication, common sense…
