Today I decided to better myself and go back to school after graduating back in 2002. I never thought this day would come but in todays work place its really needed niot only to find a job but to be able to move up through the ranks. I enrolled in ITT Tech as of today in the criminal justice field ( i am in the process of becoming a dispatcher for the city here and it just seemed like it would better my chances of getting that job for sure now ). I hope i can do this

yea im just really nervous cause its been so long since ive been a "student"! i guess ill get over it and push through the next few years but still its kinda a shock to go back to the books after so long, at least i didnt wait until i was like 30 or 40 to go back lol

It's never too late. I see lots of guys here at Tech who are older, married, and have kids. One of them is around 40 years old and is a straight A student. All you need is the desire to learn and the drive to succeed.

that was me before but now im like well if i can make twice as much as i would a year without a degree i was like fuck ill pay 20-40k to make 40-60k more a year
Mind you i am using federal govt wages as my example, as the only way to go up the career ladder fast with them is to have a degree of any kind as long as its accredited and its a bachelors or your in the process of getting it lol fucking govt rules ftl
