Ai gets degrees from harvard. Well dang. I see you AI

[TCredo]

lol on the AI MBA! I'm curious if he had to take out any loans :)

I graduated college eons ago. It felt right at the time to do so - and I needed to mature which I think it helped me do - and in a weird way it got me in a good starting point direction for how my career unfolded - but... not sure I'd do it again :)

[Miah06]

Understand

[Wiredone]

I went to 2 trade colleges. One for automechanics and one for electrician. I graduated from both of them. I'm now a master mechanic and master electrician but I don't work on cars anymore

[Miah06]

My uncle was a master electrician, and ended up becoming electrical inspector for the county, and promoted to chief electrical inspector. He even rewrote a couple of the codes. Don't ask me which ones. Not sure

[Wiredone]

I had 1 code changed. It made it illegal to wire any device any other way than wrapping the wire around the screws

[exitseven]

@Wiredone I remember you wrote about that. i changed all the outlets in my new shed after that.

[Wiredone]

@exitseven that was a very smart move. I've seen so many fires beginning because of speed wiring.

[exitseven]

I wired my new addition over 25 years ago. I remember being skeptical about the speed wiring holes on the backs of outlets so i used the screws. I got lazy when I wired my shed for electricity.

[Wiredone]

@exitseven at least you corrected your mistake and did it the correct way

[exitseven]

Yes, it was a brand new shed and I would have hated to see it go up in flames.

[Wiredone]

@exitseven it's a nice shed too. I'd get rid of those pine trees behind it. Wouldn't want them to come down on top of it

[exitseven]

The pine trees are on somebody else;s property. It was one of them that fell on my old shed.

[jennifer_bloom]

Bachelors degree but I took a few graduate classes as well. I was taken off the graduate school list cause I had difficulty adjusting to the expectations of graduate school. I might redo graduate school again but in a different subject.

I did some college and my job offered to pay for my nursing program, after I was promoted twice.

But some things happened that threw me off... I'll go back for my nursing degree though.

[Miah06]

You should miss nurse

[7Phoenix7]

What about you?

[Miah06]

I got a bachelor's in elementary education.
But went back to online college to get my master's to open up potential more opportunities

[7Phoenix7]

What will you get your master's in? That's awesome

[Miah06]

I have it already edu/sped

[7Phoenix7]

Go ahead then with your bad self

[Miah06]

Hehe

[AI Opinion]

My highest level of education is an MBA from Harvard University.

[abc3643]

Oh yeah? You are a machine.
Scan your diploma...

[Miah06]

@abc3643 😂😂

[Sonorous]

Highschool but I am smart tho I just dropped out because medical issues

[Miah06]

I seen some if your opinons i don't doubt your smartness

[Sonorous]

I'm not a genius but my IQ probably isn't below like 110. I'm that type of guy someone would underestimate on paper but then form a different type of opinion of me after meeting me & hearing what I have to say.

[Miah06]

No doubt

[Sonorous]

Not tryna flex but I'm like that one guy that someone would look at, think they're absolutely the stupidest person just based on how they look. But then as soon as they ask them anything Ijust start talkin in mozart

[7Phoenix7]

😂😂

Don't you play the piano? @Sonorous

[Sonorous]

@7Phoenix7 - Though I am above average IQ, I don't think piano has major correlation with IQ tbh. Anyone could become proficient at it if they play it for long enough. I've been playing for 10years & I ain't even that good so that shows my limits 🧎‍♂️

[abc3643]

I pursued a PhD, but I did not finish and went into industry.

[Miah06]

Do you plan to go back for it, or feel you are in the right direction without needing it?

[abc3643]

LOL I am 62. I gave it up half a life ago. No, I am not going to start over - especially given the price of tuition, my age, and that I have so much more that I want to do with what little time I have left. A PhD would not do anything for me career-wise, but it would be me more in debt.

[exitseven]

I have an MS in Computer Science and an MSM in Technology Management.

[Miah06]

Impressive

[exitseven]

thanks - you are impresssive as well

[CrisboOx]

Bachelor's degree. Currently pursuing a PhD.

[Miah06]

That's great

[CrisboOx]

Not really. I'm not interested in pursuing a PhD. Only doing it out of necessity.

[Joshydavid25]

I did some community college for acting, and I should've done Computer science.. 😭.. Now, I'm looking get my certificates in Cyber Security and some other IT fields..

[PeachyPie93]

2 years in college..

[Miah06]

Get a degree of any kind, or decided you got all you wanted from it?

[PeachyPie93]

I did one year of graphic design but realized I don't like drawing or designing what other people want me to design so dropped out then took a security course for a year and got a Law and security diploma for that lol.

[Jjmetalchick]

High school 11th grade.

[Miah06]

You skipped a year right

[Jjmetalchick]

No, i did three years in two. My parents wanted me to slow down tho so i can go to college.

[Miah06]

Well still it's impressive.

[Jjmetalchick]

Thanks...

[Shiprex]

Good job, well done. I left high school a year earlier than I had to because I got the grades to get in. Was it wise? Not really I was generally 2 years younger than a lot of the others in my intake but the work wasn't all that hard, my maturity meant I spent a lot of it puking up Guinness and cheap lager while eating glass tumblers for laughs.
There's plenty of time to get to the end but once you reach it then have somewhere to go that will allow you to thrive in happiness

[Miah06]

You are welcome❤️

[Jjmetalchick]

@Shiprex thanks... U made it tho. At least ur still alove to tall js.

[Shiprex]

@Jjmetalchick
Yep hanging on by threads

[Jjmetalchick]

@Shiprex i believe in u tho. ☺

[Shiprex]

@Jjmetalchick
Thanks you, much appreciated and it makes me smile to know this.

[Jjmetalchick]

@Shiprex ofc. you're welcome.

[Dongie]

[Miah06]

Okie

[Anonymous]

30 years of work experience

College a stupid scam that will leave you broke for your first 20 working years.

[Shiprex]

MSc after a BSc and PGDiploma

[es20490446e]

Genius.

[Miah06]

Not a education level. But ok

[es20490446e]

There's a difference between training and education.

[Miah06]

No there's a difference between education, and smarts. Anyone can be educated. Not everyone can be smart, and even fewer can be a genius

[Miah06]

Intellect not smarts

[es20490446e]

I'm starting to suspect that being a genius is the opposite of being educated.

[Summeroflove]

I agree some of the people accepted into university is honestly scary. There are smart successful people as well who never got a post secondary education.

Some degrees are also a waste of time and effort they would have been better off never getting. Obviously if you’re going to be a teacher. Lawyer. Doctor. Etc. Yoi need to go to university.

Also a degree in anything can and does
help someone get jobs but at the same time. Many people can get those
Same jobs spending as much time getting work experience as they did in university
Now having to get work experience. As well as the increased pay but also having mountains of debt to pay off

[Miah06]

To me being educated just means you can repeat what you were told, or taught.
I definitely do not think education level has anything to do with intellect

[Miah06]

@Summeroflove this is about as accurate as it gets

[Summeroflove]

Thanks. I think the value of a person goes beyond a degree anyways. People who think they’re better because they went to collage are many times probably compensating for something

[HungTexan]

Master of a science.

[Charliefretz329]
