Fishpart,
So true except that drill instructor's are far less tolerant and far more persuasive then most of the folks here.
Seriously Patrick, have you entertained the idea of going in the service? It's really not a bad deal, especially if you're not going to college yet, or you don't want to go. If you change your mind afterward, they will even give you some money for it. If there is something you like to do and they have a need for it, they will formally train you and make you even better at it. Think about it, if you enjoy working on small boat motors as a hobby, maybe the Navy or Coast Guard has a need and a progrm for something like that. It might be worth looking into.
If not the service, then maybe a trade school or college. You can make as much or as little of college as you want. You can learn in spite of the immature people that are wasting Daddy's money. In a few years, this world will not be as kind to you.
There are a lot of people giving you good advice. I hope it doesn't fall on deaf ears.
Carl
