I know it’s frustrating for people to leave college with degrees and still not have any real skills. I can name a few people like that right now off the top of my head. (First one that comes to mind, English Major.) I had a useful major, and I had some real life type skills before I went to school. Most of my lower level classes I didn’t do so well in because I felt that I wasn’t learning anything applicable, so I never really tried. My upper division classes were another story altogether. If I went back and did the math, the difference in GPA between my lower level and upper level classes was something like 2 whole points.
But anyway, I take a certain kind of delight when I apply something I learned in class to my job. It reminds me that my thousands in school loans didn’t go to waste. I am now going to end this post because my train of thought has completely derailed, and I don’t remember what else I was going to say.
