Thank you, and best wishes to you as well!

My oldest son was a C-ish student at CC until he took a job at Burlington Coat Factory, the low end of low-end retail. Seeing what life was like for people without education turned him into an A student.

He’s the one who has graduated from the university, and he has an excellent job - related to his degree! - his own car, and a cat.

My first job was at JC Penny, started at 16 at the local mall, lasted for several years and that was when I realized I didn’t want to do retail for the rest of my life. Started waiting tables while going to college. Your son and I have had a very similar trajectory in life, believe it or not. I even own my own car and 2 cats. Still working on the wife problem, too many break ups, not ready to go MGTOW yet.
