Speak for yourself, Mr. Alky.
I’m literally just going to school because I enjoy learning. Sure, I’m earning a degree, and one day it might be used, but that’s about it.

I’m in college because I have no clue what the fuck I want to do. I went to school with Mr. Cobra Jeffy for machining, hated it, quit the job I got with that degree. Started mechanical engineering and hated it. In psychology now and I’m pretty into it so far.
Going nowhere in life crew OG.

Psychology is an interesting subject, my buddy just graduated dual major Psych/Soc from Emory in Atlanta. He is making $9 an hour currently, using his degree trying to pay off some bills before he goes to grad school. From what I’ve been told by a few psych majors the only way to get a real job using it requires a doctorate.

But it’s true! I’m not ready for a full time job or a mortgage so I shall remain in school until I choose to partake in such activities. :rofl

BTW Krazy, ge energys occupation in 66 is no more due to the fact that ge transportation is putting their magical battery plant there. they fit the entire building into the bay next to the one my machine is in. I operate a large boring bar.(call it the Betts Bar bc thats the manufacturer, im told that there is only 1 of these machines in this hemisphere) we load on each half of the turbine shell, 40 to 50 tons a piece, bolt them together, shim the bar depending on what kind of turbine it is and i size and locate the pockets that the diaphragms are dropped into. and certain bores and faces that need to be finished to print. normal shit, ya know
