So I know that college is definitely not for everyone and I fully support people who don't have a interest in more higher education field to do trade schools because you make damn good money. There was also a point where college was pushed for everyone instead of trades and that seems to be reversing a bit.

Now college isn't the answer for everything, but there's absolutely some career fields that college us necessary. Thoughts?

Ron Perlman, the absolute fucking legend
People had traditional wisdom, helped each other build such things, and more. Our current issues with affordable housing in terms of cost and political arguments are awful.

I've been unemployed (resigned) since April, and have had horrible work experiences since then. I applied to a sushi bowl place, for $10/hr. I thought, “Sure, it shouldn't be that hard to set an interview” and was emailed by the store to come during business hours and ask for a manager, which I did. Tell my why, I was given this blue and white paper called a “Pre-employment questionnaire” (you can google it, if you never seen the paper) and it's demanding the last four jobs (name and address for employer, time there, and reason for leaving), education history, 3 references (their address, business, and years known), THEN the interviewer has a remarks page to give input and describe your neatness, personality, ability, and if you're hired under what position and wage.
