Default After 17 years of school...I'm done

So I just finished my last final of college and I am now done with school forever. I don't plan on going back, but you never know. Graduation is this Saturday and I start my job on Tuesday. It's kind of a good and kind of bad thing knowing you're done but yet have to start your real life. No more fun and games without having anything really to do anymore.

I'm still excited though because my job pays for my new car and I don't have to worry about grades anymore so it's not half-bad.

Congrats!!! The fun really starts now...it's called responsibility! Be careful in your decisions and remember to think twice...balance this out with the most fun you can have (legally) and life should be a breeze. Oh and another word of advice...jumping into the real world is easy ...it's the azzholes you have to deal with that make it interesting.

Oh I've dealt with my fair share in my line of business but I choose to disregard it until it starts to interfere within my own. I more responsible than most guys my age. I've always been the more mature out of my group of friends, but I know my limits.

It's a whole different world today than when many of us finished school. I don't envy anyone starting their life today. The best to you and hopefully, there will be a future.

What will you be doing now after those tough 17 years? Just curious what other 22 year olds do when they graduate (mine graduated undergrad in May and is working and going for his Masters).

Well right now I'm working for my father in our business, and I might go back to school to get my MBA for more education. I need a few years of partially running a business in order to apply to certain schools. I do plan on taking it over and/or buying an area for myself, we own a distributorship of Boar's Head (the deli meats) in south Sarasota county.

I'm always looking to learn new things so I highly doubt my schooling is over with, but I'm liking what I'm doing now.

Hey. You are a good fellow because you got a job. And the more you are well done because you earn so much that you are missing on the car. Many graduates of the college can not find a job. Because they write bad graduation papers. If you buy an issue paper here - www.au.papersowl.com. If paper is good - you will get a job. Once again I want to say that I'm proud of you that you yourself have achieved this.

This thread was created almost 12 years ago
I wonder how life has been for this young person since he graduated nearly 12 years ago and has now been working hopefully for nearly 12 years

You edited the post because of ‘bad words’, I guess you never learned.
Scammer scum.
