I Am Wasted Here
School. What a joke. Stay home, learn programming, learn HTML, JAVA, whatever the hell else. Make websites. Cool ones. Make scheduling systems. Build up the whole foundation to running a company. Sell each part separately, under different company names. Hire others like you. Win.
That's what I should have done. Something like that, at least. Instead I got A's and A*'s. I went to uni and got a masters. I got paid very little to make a couple of people a huge sum of money. I left. Now I'm in fast food, with no useful skills whatsoever. An MSc doesn't prep you for a job. Seriously. Basic experience ordering parts, doing specifications, design drawings - but I'm no engineer. I can't claim to have that skillset either.
So I'm unemployable. I have no money leftover (I never did actually), so I can't exactly just pause and retrain. I'm just working my way up the ladder so I know how to run something at least.
But I want to learn databa<x>ses. I want to be able to program the hell out of a computer. I want to be able to reprogram our attitudes to life, consumerism, the world we live in, the people in it. One day. One day.
