    The way I’ve done classes so far kinda screwed me, which is fine I guess, just kinda lame.

    It’ll be worth it in the end,

    This. If it was for a great career and it meant living in different city's for a few months till you got settled that's totally worth it. And if the girl can't handle that then it isn't meant to be

    I applied at a few HVAC places after college. Ended up taking a natural gas station designer position instead. Theres always hvac postions open.

    I like that: "pro my life"

    I think my main aversion to the whole gun "thing" for me has more to do with the lobby groups. I'm pretty anti lobby in general because they aren't out there for the good of the people, but the good of the product they're being paid by their industry to sell to congress. Everything from the cable industry to the dairy industry to yes, the gun industry. The milk lobby peddled lies (or at least half truths) about how healthy milk is (remember the "it does a body good" ads?). The cable industry doesn't want us to have "a-la-cart" subscriptions. Etc...

    I’m pretty sure there’s a kid that remodeled an older school bus and lives out of it.

    Solar panels on the roof, don’t know what the inside looks like.
