Thinking about Quiting Full Time Work and going back to school Full Time. Even thinking about ROTC. If I do ROTC Ill go back to Embry Riddle Otherwise I dont know where Ill want to go, but I want a Non-Engineering Technical Degree. I really dont want to start all over with Calculas.
and OT The Guard pays all my tuition up to like 5k per fiscal year. Plus I will get about 12-1300 per month from my GI Bill (eventually sometimes it can take over a year to turn on which kinda defeats the purpose) And than Stay on part time at my current job if they are willing to do that which they may. I need to talk to them.
I need to talk my last three inet classes from riddle though cause I am only 3 classes away from a second associates but its 500 a pop for em and they are prvt so no TA
Student loans...if you stay in school you will not have to repay until you get out...what is your ultimate goal regarding school? Do you plan on getting a bachelors degree in something? If you have any certs you can get a technical customer service job at night or some other shift to pay for school and do that part time...most places are pretty flexible when it comes to that.
Juggs: think about how you want to live your life later on and what you have to do now to prepare for it. Or say F it and wait til your about 30 to worry bout life.
But my honest opinion on this type of stuff: enjoy life now and try not to have too much to worry about. Go places, do things, meet people.

My goal is to be able to settle down and Do wtf ever I want when Im 30
Which gives me 5 years I turn 25 in August Scary.
I am just topped out pay wise in my current career field and I look at things like what I make right now is what a 2nd lt starts at without miamis High cost living, as well as I may be able to bump up my pay by 15-20k if I got my degree. I am only 3 semsters of Bullshit Business classes away from a Business degree but I want to stay technical. That and being in school is making me realixzze how much I miss school. Problem is Beaf that on my current pay rate I cant afford to do the things I want to do to enjoy life. I am a high maintenance MFer. I see you all in fairly professional career fields making more than I (I think, but if not most of you are duel income) and I want to be where you guys are at when I get there. But to stay at my current job making a $1 raise per year for the next 20 years plodding through and bored doesn't sound apealing to me. I plan to move to some Tiny town and buy the place up eventually. That and I am still running for president in 2016 as far as I know right now. Anyways I am just depressed on my current career and starting to wish I hadn't gotten out of the miltary, I am having fun even though over half the people here a douchebags and I have to shave and wear the same clothes every day. There is just something about it.

Nothing is going to get him where he wants to be by the time he's 30. He should have started thinking about that 10 years ago. Even with a degree, there is no guarantee that he will make the dollars that he wants. I see guys with degrees all the time at work making 30 to 40K a year. It takes time in a company to make the serious dollars, don't start buying into the hype of the big pay check after school. Time, hard work and dedication at your job is what brings you the big bucks and the promotions.

Thats the problem with my current Career snow, The highest promotion I can get is to be a branch manager and there is about 50 people ahead of me for those 4 slots. Branch managers in my company and pretty much throughout my career field are expendable and they only make about 10k more and they are straight salary.
Im just frustrated I guess I dunno I feel in a rut.
Everyone gets in a rut at some point. If your only focus at work is the amount of cash it can bring you then you will be in a rut everytime. It is very hard to find work that is interesting and financially rewarding at the same time.
I am still searching and may go back to doing what I like to do rather than what makes more money.
I understand and it happens to everyone and don't get me wrong being a manager at a mickdee's for 20 years is not what i meant. Get a job at a stable F500 company and then do the time and be dedicated and it will come. Getting a degree for the soul purpose of making a buch of cash is just setting yourself up for disapointment.
