This is something I just wanted to shed some light on for a minute.
If you're unemployed what's the number one thing people tell you? "You need to go to school!" I can't stand that. Don't get me wrong, I have nothing against school. If you want to go to school, than I think that's exactly what you should do. But I don't believe you need a degree to find work.
Yes, it's damn hard to find any kind of employment, but that doesn't mean it's not possible. Take for example the job I used to have. I used to be a gymnastics coach. That's a career that you can't go to school for. Sure you can safety and CPR certs, but that can't teach you what you need to know to do that job. I had a career with no schooling, but my health caused me to have to quite.
People tell me that employers want to see a degree, then why are there people with no citizenship who can't even speak English and certainly don't have any kind of degree have a career? What ever they're doing, we need to sit back and take notes!
This isn't meant to lead people away from degrees, this was meant to give the people who don't have the means to go to school hope. Yes, you can apply for loans and all kind of special things to be able to go to school. But what if, for any reason, someone can't do that? Even if you have to stoop to working in the fast food industry, work hard and you could become manager.
Don't ever let anyone tell you you can't do things differently. If everyone focused and lived off of other people's reservations then humanity wouldn't be where it is today.
