Going to university wasn't my real mistake. My real mistake was trying to make something of a worthless degree.
Unless you really have STEM talent, don't bother going to University. A community college degree is more than enough.

8th year with the same company. Promoted twice. Pay has increased 38% from start. Supervisor at night. No bosses around. Only 3 employees to supervise, and they're very low maintenance/self motivated.
I'm a BSN.

One thing I always heard in business classes was that the most successful people never stay at the same job for more than 3 years. They always market themselves and continuously prove themselves and leverage that at every turn.
Here's the part that wasn't told: You basically have to sacrifice your entire life to you job. Yes, that is the way to become a great success, but you have to give up everything else about your life. You job becomes an obsession, to the point or putting your very health in danger. Working 80+ hours per week, every day for years on end.
If that's what you define as success, then fuck it. Nothing wrong with just living a simple, good career, no matter what you do.

13 years at walmart. Raises don't seem to be happening this year so I'll have to find another path to the mythical $15/hr, though without a high school diploma or skills, that will be increasingly difficult.

Decided I’m going to the Police Academy after I graduate. A degree should give me more money and be easier to move up. Pretty excited to get into a uniform desu
