Engineer > Bus Driver any day.  You have chosen wisely.

And the 100k pilot salary isn't long for this world.

Yeah.

I decided this week I am double-majoring. Academic suicide.

I am ready though, I can do this. That is what I keep telling myself over and over.

as soon as i found out i wasnt going to be able to afford college i cashed all my savings bonds and bought a truck.




found out that college is free for me as long as i purposly fail a compentecy test. I guess having a "learning Disorder" actually works out for me.

than about a year later i got a job that pais for my college.

Got all of that right, but you forgot the picture of the pilot on the street corner with a "homeless, need food or money, God Bless" sign during his off time.

This is why WGP is majoring in Aero Eng and doing the CTI (Air Traffic Control for you guys that don't like acronyms) school.

Engineers do it with precision.
Engineers do it on the test bench.
Engineers do it to specs.
Engineers do it with electricity.
Engineers do it with the latest technology.
Engineers do it by pulling all nighters.
Engineers do it under intense pressure.
Engineers do it with more frequency.
Engineers do it with less resistance.
Engineers do it until it hertz.
Engineers do it with maximum power.
Engineers do it with maximum efficiency.
