JiP Posted February 19, 2009 Report Posted February 19, 2009 Well i do blame the banks. Its not just credit cards. My parents are struggling to pay their mortgage cause the interest rate is 17%! Thats almost as bad as some credit cards. Quote
Felix Posted February 19, 2009 Report Posted February 19, 2009 17% :D Time to refinance through another bank. Interest rates are now at the lowest they have been for ages. 4.5-8%. Quote
dfunkt Posted February 19, 2009 Report Posted February 19, 2009 REALLY really tempted to just drop out, but I can't :D if dropping out is what you want to do, then nothing should be able to stop you. Quote
JiP Posted February 19, 2009 Report Posted February 19, 2009 They are refinancing as we speak. Hopefully it should take some pressure off me. Quote
LittleRedSpirit Posted February 19, 2009 Report Posted February 19, 2009 Except parents. lol Stick with it, its worth it in the end. I had a lot of friends drop out only to realise they needed the grades to do anything they wanted to do. Not cool to be 3 years older than everyone else in your class, and still struggling to pass. Get it done, its worth it. :D Quote
godlovesugly Posted February 19, 2009 Report Posted February 19, 2009 school is awesome. i wish i was still at school, you get to see all your mates every day and girls in little skirts and you get to eat twice a day. work is shit. don't ever leave school. Quote
Jason Posted February 19, 2009 Report Posted February 19, 2009 Uni is better, you get to drink before pracs and tuts ha :D Quote
LukeAE71 Posted February 19, 2009 Report Posted February 19, 2009 Registration Office at Noarlunga grinds my gears. You wait forever, using your whole lunch break, the place is full of stinky people, then you finally get served and they say, oh you filled out form 1435, when in fact you need form 1234, not to mention the fact that this is the form the lady at the reception gave you for your query. Then they tell you to line up and wait again after you have filled out the new form, rather than allowing you to fill it out at the counter where they just handed you the correct form. Then they charge you $48 for a one day permit to move an unregistered vehicle. My mate registered his scooter for the whole year for $48. Plus the people who work there are rude and not interested, if you don't want to work there then don't, but don't give me attitude when I go in there to get something which I need. They call it a Service Centre, the ultimate irony, as what you receive is anything but service :D Quote
Hiro Protagonist Posted February 19, 2009 Report Posted February 19, 2009 Uni is better, you get to drink during pracs and tuts ha :D Fixed. I knew a couple of guys who turned up to the last lecture of the year with an Esky and a couple of long-necks And another time (same subject, different people), we had a 2 hour lecture where the first hour was revision for a test, and the second hour was the test. Bunch of my mates spent the first hour studying the bottom of schooners at the bar, rocked up to the test completely off their faces. Quote

Jason KE30 Posted February 19, 2009 Report Posted February 19, 2009 I couldn't stand school at all. Pissed me off soo much. So I decided to head out into the working world and earn some cash while getting some worthwile life experiences. Now that my surgery is out the way I can finally look into gettin my diesel mechanic apprenticeship! Quote
67Rolla-Ken Posted February 19, 2009 Report Posted February 19, 2009 Finishing school is over rated. For most people (in WA anyway) it means you have 2 less years working experiance behind you :D I graduated, has never helped me at all. My wife dropped out of school, she's 23 and has 2 deplomas and has nearly completed a degree. Quote
love ke70 Posted February 19, 2009 Report Posted February 19, 2009 nah, schools worth it, when i finished, walked out with an OP2 and could do any uni course i wanted, get basically any job i wanted, and ended up spending a year kicking back doing enough to pay the bills and that was all. ended up doing carpentry and am loving it, so while i could have done that without even finishing school, the opportunities presented to you are worth sticking it out and doing your best :D Quote
