[QUOTE="quad decade guy, post: 4761961, member: 77939"] A little too self-reverent for me. In the end we deliver stuff to peoples/businesses homes/places. We have a a good. steady, high paying job with relatively free health care. Generally it's stable and secure(for now). I have 4 degrees in Aviation. They have been earned over the 40 years I've worked at UPS. Mainly when I was in Automotive and then Feeders. Pkg car didn't allow for anything but Pkg(too unpredictable). I've never used my education. We can't transfer and UPS isn't interested. My Brother is a degreed Civil Engineer. I make substantially more than he does and have better retirement and benefits. I make more than anyone I know with a few exceptions. Most likely more than anyone on my cul de sac. Would I do it differently? Absolutely. I would have moved heaven and earth to finish my 4 year degree as soon as possible after high school and went rotc military career active. Probably even receiving college credits in high school. Although I don't know if that was possible then. I didn't really have any kind of guidance from my parents. They just said you are going to work and go to college. And that's what I did. Regrets? a few... [/QUOTE]
