Hi gang so listen at these sweet opinions I'm finna drop down like rain on your little heads and in this scenario I am positing your heads are bald and I mean I'm not saying they're LITERALLY small but I'm way up high for some reason dropping opinions like rain on your shiny bald heads:
College educates ya, to an extent. And yeah, a lot of what you learn there you might learn elsewhere. It can humble ya. Depends on the college and such. People with college degrees make a lot more money, on average. It'd be tempting to think it's the education, but it's not necessarily, because people who drop out after 3 years of college make a lot less money than those who get their degrees...
If you do go to college, and graduate, employers know you have at least a bare minimum amount of smarts and/or commitment. One or the other. Or both. So if they're screening for applicants, why bother with someone who hasn't been? No reason not to take someone who's proven they're willing to put up with college nonsense and bureaucracy. It's a sign of patience and emotional stability to make it through. A social marker.
Now I'm not gonna get all POETICAL and be like, "a social marker, and nothing more!!! ALAS!" because it's often more than that. But looking at lifepaths, I'd have to be one arrogant li'l Sandshrew to be like "yeah, I'm gonna pass up this social marker that people see as a sign I'm credible as an employable person." That's the system. And, if you can afford college, the system is to your advantage.
heck yes there's more you gdawgs and pdawgs and dawgs of all the other letters... ALSO.
Listen everybody here's the lowdown? Greek narrative is pretty specific all up in the business. They gotta get their tragic flaw on and then stuff gets uncomfortably real, and they challenge the social order and fail and it's all groady. Like Oedipus I guess and Antigone (my fave, rad chick hero and all that BIZ) but they gotta FAIL is the business.
not a lot like what hero means 'round these days if you know what I'm sayin'.....
