Dropping out?

[Monsieur Noob]

Wow in most jobs here you won't take that in a whole day of work

you'll never be successful

sorry to break it to you

your right you need an education to be sucessful no lies

 

[deadzone]

I know more people who dropped out and are making a LOT less than people who graduated.

and thats because those people are ignorant and dont look for a job, because some people dont have no motivation to be successful dont mean all drop outs are like that.

you'll never be successful

sorry to break it to you

ignorance truely is bliss huh mos, the chances of you being success about .2%

And what after that? How do you expect to start making a lot of money?

someone is illiterate? he said he had a job already setup for him to make 24$ an hour which is damn good money, he just has to wait til he is 18.

hes either gonna be the owner of mccdonalds drive through or owner of janitor at burger king

well with your literacy imparement i'd say your number one on the list for those jobs bud.

24 bucks an hour won't get you far supporting a family...

And dude, face it, you won't go anywhere without at least a high school degree, and after that, a bachelor's degree is a starter.

Sorry man =\

24$ an hour wont? your obviously a moron, factory workers have very good paying jobs and they get paid around 15-20$ an hour, so 24$ an hour is damn good and he could support his family just fine. maybe you should know a little more about what your talking about before you talk like you know something.

True if you win the lottery or become a famous actor or sports figure. It has been known for many years that young people who don't complete high school face many more problems in later life than do people who graduate. With technology advancing, jobs requiring post highschool training are growing rapidly.



EARNINGS AND OPPORTUNITIES FOR DROPOUTS



The gap between dropouts and more educated people is widening as opportunities increase for higher skilled workers all but disappear for the less skilled.

*

In the last 20 years the earnings level of dropouts doubled, while it nearly tripled for college graduates.
*

Recent dropouts will earn $200,000 less than high school graduates, and over $800,000 less than college graduates, in their lives.
*

Dropouts make up nearly half the heads of households on welfare.
*

Dropouts make up nearly half the prison population.

and you , you have to be the most ignorant one on here,
first off half the prison pop is people from the "ghetto's" that didnt have much chance to succeed in anything in the first place , and the reason that the majority of the people on wellfare are ones who arnt grads, its for the simple fact that they usually work the harder jobs and if you ask any of them they love doing it , they decided instead of wasting there life in a deadend job in a cubical like you , they would go out to be a construction worker etc., so before you talk learn a little bit,

as for jobs you can get (although yes you might be able to get better with a degree but about as easy without it)
1. farmer
2.game designer
3.game tester
4. construction
5.artist
6.hotel owner
7.realastate salesmen (your own realastate as in houses you own and rent out etc.)
8. a computer tech.
9.computer engineer
10. mechanic

i would add more but not wasting my time , if you want me to list more i will pm more. but otherwise just be quiet it sounds like most of you are like 15 and have no sense of the real world, and yes other then the few i said u can get a band , rapper, actor\tress and lots other but the chances are slim.

anyways this has been deadzones minute and you just got owned. thanks for playing.

Dude.

Don't. You will regret it, just slack off at least.

 

[Heist]

Minimum wage? I know people who dropped out and are making more than people who are graduating.

Guess why you hear about them, because there arn't many that actually do it so the ones that are we make a big deal out of it. Kids, don't cheat yourself and think you can do it without an education.

 

[sorcey]

I just want to know some opinions on dropping out, if you did, And how are things now. But, knowing the sythe community, most of you are 12.

Me- I dropped out at the end of this year, my freshman year, currently looking for a job and already have a job set up for me when im 18, so I will do fine. Don't flame people for their ideas.

And you dont' need to finish highschool to be successful, remember that.

I dropped Out in 10th Grade had the gov on my ass ever since it was a very bad idea but what could they do? i Had and still have a Job Family own a few Coffee Shop's , Motels , Bar. I'll Never be outta work unless all three colapse.

 

[Gone Fishing]

I would never drop out, not after coming this far, even through all the bullshit, I wouldn't drop out. It would also ruin your future.

 

[2kewl4u]

God, at least finish High School..
in a couple of years i bet even college is going to be REQUIRED.
At least go to some kind of crappy community college. Get a fucking degree. ITS EASY. You go to school, you get to meet friends! Just sit in class and listen to the teacher. Not that hard!
GOD.

My dad didnt even graduate from highscool.. he dropped out his junior year, and now we are here living in a nice 2 story 4 bedroom house with him making over $100,000 a year...

Deadzone:
Oh come on. How does he expect to support a family with $24/hour + tax? Are you on crack? $24/hr is NOT nearly enough to support himself in the future. It's about a little less than $70k per year, which is decent enough at first, but I'm almost 100% sure he could get laid off, and if he wants a family he will need to make more money. Also, most of the jobs you listed won't hire you without a college education (he doesn't even have a high school diploma!). I'd really like you to go out and try to be a GAME DESIGNER without a high school degree or any programming experience, and see how many interested companies you get *rolls eyes*...I think you're the illiterate one here, not me. I mean honestly, you can't even spell "real estate" correctly, and you're bitching to me about ME being illiterate?

Hard worker or not, people will judge him based on the amount of education he has. It doesn't matter how good of a person he is, companies will not consider him if they think he's a lazy bastard, and dropping out of school definately implies to them that he was too lazy to continue his education. The only jobs he can get are crappy ones like at that steel warehouse. -_-

 

[ii hacked ii]

im sorted when i leave school go college and learn how to fix and make comps then leave find sum1 who is willing to pay for me to learn java script and C++

 

[xx mdv xx]

Actually, most people on Sythe are 14 and 15. I wouldn't want to drop out because it would give me a bad reputation and my friends parents would think I'm not a good person or something.

 

[G0t 0wnd]

I finished high school last year i was wanting todrop out but didnt and im glad i didnt.

Good luck to you tho.
