| Shift work is a killer. It is not human nature to work nights. It shortens your life span and is the cause of many illnesses. We run on circadian rhythm. We are not nocturnal beings.

I didn't get a credit card till I was around 24 and never had a problem paying them off monthly. Straight out of high school I'm not sure kids have the wherewithal to handl... |

| Personally I find it hard as all hell to keep up any kind of social life while working nights because everyone else works days. That's just why I avoid it personally. It does play havoc with a social life, indeed. If I get together with friends I can never have a drink and I leave by 10. But I'm ol... |

| Lesson one: Avoid any business that uses a LOT of 3rd world importing like the plauge. :P Seriously if there's anything that worries me about the next generation it's that we spend a good 90% of our cash at Wal-Marts and fast food joints creating a ton of minimum wage jobs and nothing more.

Let's face it... the cirriculum is designed by the Ontario gov't. The gov't has shown a horrific amount of disrespect for our tax dollars and an inability to spend with any kind of semblence .
And now we will hand them the "duty" of teaching our CHILDREN how to spend wisely? |
