When I was 14, I was looking to get into underage girls.

Thank feck I grew out of that :unsure:

something more to major in with high academic grades.......

Travel for a year, think about it and then ask the same question to yourself.

I travel quite often compared to regular people..........yet no help.......

Travel Guide or Coke importer?

coke importer?.......sounds dull whatever it is.......

It does help if you give some hints of your interests...
for one you are at this forum, hence your into pc's, filesharing etc so anything in the programming, webdesign, telecine world might be an option

yeah I though about majoring in computer science, computer software engineering, AI etc...........but stuff such as philosophy, mathematics, and madeival and reaissance studdies also interest me...........do you have any suggestions for a major which does not require much creativity or endless writing.......

How bout a career as an electrician? It only takes a few months of school until you're an apprentice and making $12+ an hour then it only gets better from there (the career types avg. $25/hr and benefits). It's a pretty straight forward job (see: no creativity required), hands-on (not on paperwork), with different areas of emphasis (it's not all wiring houses). If after a little while, you decide it's not for you, it would still be a good base for jumping to the electrical engineer/computer field you've already thought of.

Or you could end up like me and be earning less at that the age of 25 than i did as a 19 year old apprentice.

my washing machine doesn't rotate, how to fix?

new belt thing needed maybe? motor fucked up? is it plugged in?

why you'd want your washing machine to rotate, i have no idea

button broken?

no, i like to let the air in.

Shocking. :blink:

and you guys call yourselves electricians

no spin(at all), button rotates smoothly.

you see fz_shurtugal translator job is needed here.

You're getting a washing machine repair man mixed up with an electrican, an easy mistake to make, but messy.

electrition, accountant, -it all sounds boring.......as for the translator, learning different languages is in, but I would rather make better use of it.......like subbing japanese anime into English :D .............I really need counseling for this!........

You could go into business be an entrepenuer these are my interests maybe you'd like to hear I just graduated and still thinking of something. If your interested in other languages you could go into something like cryptology in the airforce you learn many languages etc. My friend went into it first he wanted to go into cryptology but changed his mind and is going to work on planes. I also want to go into graphics game designing or game programming but that is alot of math and drawing and typing and writing lol. I have another friend I forgot the name of what he wants to do but hes going to be working on computers circuits and stuff like messing with the motherboard of a computer.

Of course it sounds boring. You want a job with no creativity. :P

Your career advice is that he should join the airforce and study the use of codes. Based on your friend not doing it and becoming an aircraft technician instead.

You really want to think that thro' a bit. And also the bit about your other friend, who does stuff, but you don't really know what it is.

I have three words of advice " Buy a lottery ticket " . So simple eh .

Genious

Computing Science, you can get a job w/ just a bachelors' (major in CS).

Or Engineering.

And take JPaul's advice, go into the AF as an Officer, they're cutting edge right now (I'm assuming you're in the states).

Which particular area of finance are you in. Are you, like our Welsh chum, a banker.
