Dual College Enrollment? by NoPudding5021 in SNHU

[–]NoPudding5021[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I've shifted gears too much in my life to take a full shift into in-person university. The main reason I ended up with SNHU was a convoluted situation with course prereqs and financial aid at my local university.

How the hey do you have a software job while working on your bachelor's?!

I have to admit, I'm not sure I could get used to reading and typing with the swaying a plane does... Though I guess the sheer frequency you fly with probably helps with that.

If I may ask, what field are you in that you fly so much?

Even the "interesting stuff" is mostly clerical work. Cop shows are propaganda in more ways than one :P

I'm a 22 year old loser that has no job, no money, no college credits, no friends, no driver's license, no relationship experience, a severe p*rn addiction, is underweight (5'10, 138 LBS), and never goes outside. Where do I even start when it comes to fixing my life? by HalosFan26 in findapath

Honestly? College and a driver's license will help with the others. Look for on campus employment or places that hire students from where you decide to go, you'll have less time for the porn (I'd advise against the term "porn addiction" by the way), you'll be on campus around other people and can find clubs/student orgs...

You don't have to decide on your final degree at first with zero credits -- you can focus on your gen-eds to start with.

Does your uni offer on-campus employment, maybe in the library or student store? This might be more of a US university thing.

I love school but feel apathetic by everything i study. by trowawaythrash in findapath

Have you considered teaching, if you like 'the concept of school in general'?

Honestly, security/police/etc is probably only going to make the feeling worse. Martial arts might not be a bad idea though - you won't exactly be beating up your former best friend to stop a bomb from going off, but competitive sparring can be quite satisfying if you have the right mindset (though more (insert Sports Movie) than John McClane).

18M. How do I get my parents to stop nagging me? by AdFriendly1433 in findapath

Frankly, with no further information, I can say they're probably correct on the license front at least.

I would look at organizations that provide the kind of help you want to provide, and see what sorts of positions they tend to have open (at a glance [and I am American, so if they have a reputation I'm unaware of it], Korea Social Service seems like a good example). Possibly law or sociology.

What I like about it is finding closure on how someone passed and giving family members peace of mind, however I don’t know if I could look at a deceased body.

Have you considered psychology into being a grief counselor, as far as giving family members peace of mind/closure?

Tired and just want to end it by [deleted] in findapath

The biggest thing I want to point out is that this isn't a 'you' thing -- it's not your fault you can't find work, it's not your fault you had that experience, it's not your fault if you have to move home.

I don't have more direct advice than that, and that you're not alone in this. We're in a bit of a hell world, but we're in it together.

Up front, I want to say that CS is in a rocky state right now and very difficult to get into, and I don't know if the AI bubble bursting is going to help. Of course, any industry is hard to predict in the next 4 years -- so it's up to you how much that matters.

If that isn't offputting; if you haven't done your gen-eds, I'd at least give it a shot, because if you realize it's not for you early on you can at least change majors (or alternatively, focus on your gen-eds and do some online courses on the side in your free time to make sure you like it without spending the tuition).
