Also, when I was in HS, being a mechanic or going into the military was my only option because my grades sucked. I worked at a garage after HS and delivered pizza pies. Then when that got old and I was tired of my parents on my case I went to community college. The problem today is everyone thinks they need a degree. They don't. More people should become trade/craftsman. College isn't a right and when it becomes one your degree will become worth less and less. But the more things change the more they stay the same: auto mechanics and soliders are needed like they were when I graduated. Everyone thinks their stupid liberal arts degree will get them a job. It won't. Splitting the atom will. A friend of mine has two phd's in biology and is teaching a bunch of angry jive brothers in newark. She says everyday--wtf did I do. Not everyone will be sucessfull taking the path most traveled. Also, parents need to wise up too that college isn't always the answer.
