Not every kid is cut out for college. Some look at college as another 4 years of high school. They take classes like underwater basketweaving and wonder why they cant land a job.
My advice to any kid who dont feel like going to college but want a good job, either join the military of take up a building trade like bricklaying or plumbing. They can make a killing and even though it is dirty work, you can at least look at a house you helped build and say “ I did that”.

Agreed. Sadly alot of people look down on good honest work. I’m a college grad and am doing some odd jobs until I get my active duty orders in a month.

I have a civil engineering degree, but there just aren’t any entry level positions now.

Money for small home repairs is quite good actually. I’m getting around 5-7 hundred a week plust I have a part time job.
