    I'm a college dropout. Was a business major. I currently do shipping for Frito Lay and have been there over six years now. It's a better job than you would think. I grossed $62K there last year. The only s-----y thing is I have to work 3rd shift.

    d--- dude you're mature for your age. I always assumed you were at least mid-20s. Lol.

    But yeah I'm barely passing my way through a neuroscience degree that I never really wanted. Work at the gym on campus for work study.

    I write and s--- on the side as you guys know, and nowadays started battle rapping just to get used to performing in front of people/getting my name out there

    It'll be a shitshow once I graduate though as I don't know what I want to do with my life other than write for TV/films. Definitely not work in a lab or pursue any post graduate degrees in a scientific field. Hopefully a degree (regardless of what it is (then again, a neuroscience degree looks impressive to most people so I doubt it will hurt)) will help me get some sort of stable job as I figure the rest of the s--- out.

    I had a kid at the end of my freshman year. Tried doing part-time community college for awhile after that but didn't feel like it was really helping me much.

    :clap:

    Mc Donald's? Although it's worth way more than that. See where i'm getting at? Working for a big company doesn't mean you have a good job.

    Thanks man. It really was but it forced me to be responsible and in the end it worked out I guess. Most kids I grew up with (including my own brother and sister) that went to college now have shittier jobs than me and mountains of student loan debt from it.

    Lol college is a gamble but as long as you pick a good realistic major that you can get work in you'll be fine.

    OP asks what is your job or what do you study. And you answer with "I work for a billion dollar company". Makes you sound like a douche tbh.

    Can't argue against that. Thursday is going to be a pretty boring game, just gonna be a battle for the 3rd string QB spot.
