In today’s job market, I don’t see the incentive for hiring a kid out of high school - even as a coffee server. When you have 50 resumes come in the door, with 25 (or 10) of them from college grads that live in the area and need a job - at least the grad has shown SOME ambition to at least graduate. And may be more likely to show up on time and not call in sick all the time. Makes it a LOT tougher on the high school graduates that are probably just as capable when they are up against college grads at every turn.

Oh, I do. There's no need to shovel through four years of 'higher education.'
