Heck no. If anyone here has worked a job that doesn't require a degree the chances are its a crappy job and experience. Unless the job you are working is some sort of internship or a dream job its not fun.
For me, I could care less about pay but I just want something that aspires me to do something. I fear working that 8-5 job. I don't know how people aren't scared sitting at a desk for the rest of their life.

Probably, if I'm on break and if it's not minimum wage.

@Luapxal344: Its only till the 21st. Then i get a 2 month vacation. Pays not bad either and theres no manual labour or stress, so it's pretty alright.

@ApplesAreOkay: You said your own place I thought you meant move out of your parents house. Anyone can do that. I didn't derp out you did by setting a goal that everyone who isn't a neckbeard is capable of accomplishing. If you was talking about buying a house then that's a different story.

@CantBeStopped Its not that bad except when its the 16-18 hour days 7 days a week.. Most people I work with are crazy. You kind of have to be to want to do what I do.

[quote=DragonBandit]@applesareokay that is an absolutely horrible goal. Any loser can get their own place.

@op well i work 12 hours a day 5 days a week or sometimes 16-18 hours a day 7 days a week. 8 hours a day 5 times a week sounds pretty sweet.[/quote]

How would it be an 'ABSOLUTELY' horrible goal? Its as reasonable as working 8 hours a day a goal.

No working 8 hours a day isnt my LIFE goal, or just owning my own place.
Its just the NEXT goal I want to take after college. Apparently any loser can purchase a house while paying for college. By your standards the only goal acceptable is to cure cancer.

You derped out man.

I work for a digital advertising agency where one of our clients is a local brewery, so sometimes they pay us in beer. (lol kidding, but yeah that is one of the perks). So yeah, it's not some secret or anything.

[quote=trashed]I'm already doing that. My 40 hour work weeks have already turned into 50 hours and now sometimes 60 hour work weeks. Good thing I enjoy my job, and the (infinitely refillable) keg of beer in the office isn't so bad either.[/quote]
