So, what did you wind up doing after you failed the vision test? My brother had the same experience and wound up as a garbage collector. But believe it or not, he makes really good $$$$$.

I've heard garbage collectors make bank. It's not like cities can afford to not hire them, either.

LOL, I went on with my life.

4 years of college education in the sciences, most of which I paid for with loans, a few long-term lovers which I paid for in life-span, and here I am.

Women love me and leave me.

I want nothing more out of life than to spend it with a great woman and make babies.

Currently I'm a self employed computer consultant. Luckily I'm great at what I do, and love solving problems. I'm a natural-born fixer, I see the problem and I fix it. Computers, Engines, whatever. I just can't fix my own heart.

Running your own bidness has it's ups and downs. It's tough and you need discipline. Finding clients is the toughest part for me.

Finding conservative clients in Boston is even tougher. At one point, I had to deal with a fag at every client I went to. Besides being morally reprehensible to me, they're just F-ing F-ed up. I've gotten rid of all those clients, but I'm having trouble finding new ones that won't piss me off.

If I were you, I'd do anything I could to get into the Military. I know my life would have been so much better if I had.
