That's an associate of science (A.S.) degree, right?
Have you been pursuing your B.S. degree?

Packrat, working at Walmart's as a clerk is pathetic for a young adult who can so clearly do better. You better watch it, because in a few years (if not already) you will be looking back at your life and you will be PISSED. I have seen it before. Pink Floyd's "Time" comes to mind.

You may be nasty, but you are also smart - and that is something that is always in demand ââ?¬â?? if you are willing to use it as a tool and not as a toy. Your goal should be to work in a field where you are not the smartest person in the room.

Since you can�t find work in the architectural field, try another. Transfer those credits you have and start taking courses on-line (at home) for a B.S. degree in computer science (as an example). That's a credential you can definitely sell anywhere.

If you invested a fraction of the amount of time you spend on-line toward such a degree program, you could probably complete it in 18 months starting with an A.S. degree.

My wife has a B.S. degree in Computer Information Systems from Strayer University and does very well indeed. She completed nearly all her courses and exams on-line at home evenings and weekends. She is currently attending a seminar on CMMI.


Whatever your priorities are now, rethink them. I donââ?¬â?¢t always judge a manââ?¬â?¢s intelligence by what he does for a living ââ?¬â?? but God knows itââ?¬â?¢s a good first estimate.




Not to be rude, but I would rather take a head dive into a toilet cesspool than go back to college.
