lol he probably helped your job out actually, well minus the parents maybe.

i was a tour guide for my school. you prolly have a job but i know how anxious you can be. my favorite "friends ******* me over" experience? i was tour guiding in the summer, my boyfriend was staying in my suite. he can drink...a lot. we had a bunch of beer that weekend which was in recycling bags hidden from sight. he thought he'd be funny and surprise me with a sculpture made of beer like a zillion beer bottles. needless to say when we opened the door to the suite, i decided against showing them a dorm room...

Wow..get a better friend.

Hah, sorry man but I think thats a pretty good joke on your friend's part

i dont see why you would lose your job, just say you didnt know the dude. plus that would encourage me to go to a school!

I'm sure the people you were touring realized he was just making a joke.

l could barely read due to all the spelling errors. way to go, mods.

#40, I get what you're saying: Most people who dislike college do so because they goofed off in high school, and suddenly didn't have the grades or the athletic ability to get themselves into a college outside of community college. However, I'm not one of those people. I currently have a 3.4 GPA. I know it's not great, but it's not bad. And I've sent applications to colleges and got accepted by about half of them. However, I don't want to go to college anymore. You see, I learned how to do the family business at a young age, and currently my dad makes 270K a year. That's a lot of dough, eh? That's more than almost every lawyer or doctor! So, since I wasn't an idiot, I learned the business starting out young. And my dad even sweetened the deal on doing it- he's retiring relatively soon, and he's going to get me up to speed quickly, so I'll be making 100K (almost half the money) by the 3rd year. In other words, instead of spending 40K on college for four years, I will ALREADY HAVE about 200K IN THE BANK (cuz i can live with him still) by my THIRD YEAR COMPLETED! How's that for good money? And then within a couple years after that, he's retiring. So when he retires, I will make (give or take) about the full 270K a year he's averaged! It's hard work keeping up with it, mentally and physically... but I don't have to put in more than 8-9 hours a day with the business, so it's not bad. Not bad at ALL. =) It's guys like me and my dad that made me realize college is a waste... by the way

Aren't you lucky, 50? And when the time comes for you to impress a girl and get married you won't have to worry about how annoyingly self-righteous you are because she'll only like you for your money!

Agreed with #51, some people care more about getting an education and bettering themselves than just making money... To the OP: How would you get blamed for something your friend said? And how would the department you work for even know that it was your friend anyway?
