    what exactly are you trying to ask in your question? I mean, I can say you can go into retail they always need people in retail, but I don't really consider Retail being the best thing for anyone. Practicality wise, they always need accountants.. ?

    well I think your interests will have alot to do with your field of work in the future.. there's alot of fields out there that pays reasonably well but does everyone want to do it? probably not.. If you know people then you basically can get into any industry you desire.. but like i said before, they always need accountants, they always need people in trades.

    I just found out that a McDonald's manager makes $75k a year + bonus. Time to go to McDonald's University!

    i know this girl that's been in McDonalds for god knows how long.. apparently getting to Manager is pretty tough because the competition is fierce (all them burger flippers want to be a bigshot) and upper management will try to keep you down there with the rest of the peasants and stuff like that.

    Politics.. gota love it.

    Are you sure about that? I read an ad in the newspaper about a yr ago for McD managers starting at $35k... I think $75k is with LOTS of experience!!! I'm thinking it's more like the GM of McD makes that much!

    be a Dentist. You wont regret it once you're sitting in your 4th BMW and planning out your retirement at 40.

    Yah dentists have one of the highest suicide rates among professionals. My uncle was a dentist but he retired quite a few years ago. Made a nice life for himself...he lives on the beach in West Vancouver overlooking Kit's Beach and the Pacific Ocean! All the toys you can think of as well!

    I agree with that one completely. A friend of mine is graduating form Comp Sci this year. I asked him what he plans to do after and he told me he's gonna teach salsa dancing after he graduates! Kinda seems like a waste of a good $20K in tuition and four years if he's just gonna go teach salsa dancing! And DAMN....those Comp Sci guys go through hell....barely saw the kid at all last year cause he was doing 3 CPSC classes a semester.

    Got a decent job in the field but no degree. Don't even think I should leave cause if I go to school to get a job... but I already have a job should I risk it and go back to school?
