RE: do any of ya'll have a job after school..
I'm sittin out this semester and going back in the spring, because I lost my scholarship.
I get up and go to work everyday from 7-4, doing carpentry and construction stuff. We're putting up a house right now, but sometimes we build cabinets and other things.
Enjoy your schooling while you can, you won't realize how much better it was, til your out in the world, doing nothing but work, work, work.
