    Best advice...
    Be very observant of everything around you. Signs, lights, actions of other drivers, how your truck is handling, watch how other drivers are backing into a spot or dock, etc etc.

    If your going to go to college, go for something that is going to pay you. like MD, PharmD, JD, MBA, anything science/ research related..... not some dumb ##### thing that you are not going to be able to use in the real world. Having close personal knowledge of this, I talk you young men and women almost daily that graduate with degrees in stupid ##### like world studies, Art history and Music managment, graphic arts, animation...... guess what they are mostly waiting tables at the local Cracker Barrel looking for jobs with nothing to show for their college time except huge student loans.


    now days I think you should think of college as " advanced trade school", get educated about something you can use in the real world and something you can make a living at. "BE REALISTIC" when going to college...



    ok sorry...


    BTW, high school graduate here :)


    I talk to people everyday that graduating college and cant find jobs in their field.
     
    Freeform Thanks this.
