I'm over living around people

I am not an urbanite and never will be

why I moved to SF, I can't honestly tell you

money

the one good thing about CA's bloated red-tape bureaucracy is that most licenses you get here require so much BS and fees they usually translate well into other states

other than I thought I could find a job at the time and riding motorcycles year round was attractive

@northern_confederate it was more than money, it was the fact that I'd been searching for 3 years for a decent job after college and couldn't find one where I was

and the navy wouldn't give me the officer billet i wanted

so i came here because there was work in late 2010

@northern_confederate I lost 6 job offers my last semester of college

how

I guess I should say they were rescinded, everyone saw the writing on the economic wall

it took me a few months to get an offer but they didn't take it away

I graduated in may '08 trying to get into an investment fund

oh lol

the market crashed in september, I spent the last year of college talking about how I wouldn't have a job in all my 400 level econ classes

pretty great feeling to spend 4 years busting your ass just to be told none of that mattered

with predictions that accurate no wonder why they couldn't hire you as an economist

and that the loan payments start in 90 days, regardless, goy.

I expected the market to be shit so I worked my way through and commuted to a cheap state school

2 degrees, 0 job offers coming out of school

I worked, but not in my field

did IT shit

went to schol for polisci/economics

Isn't polisci a meme degree

i'd argue that a decade ago it wasn't

probably depends more on the department/profs

like nigga just be jewish like get a job with your uncle

I think I had a pretty good education

I'm glad I added econ to the mix

I didn't really have any SJW indoctrination

the worst were some globalist overtones, but I never had a prof that pushed that

I didn't have much indoctrination other than muh free global markets

one of the first things I read in college was Huntington's "Clash Of Civilizations" which was quite formative to my beliefs

especially having watched 9/11 only a few years before

and having my friends sent off to war at the time

psych/philosophy working in IT here, having to explain that shit during interviews is always awful

I had several friends sent to the iraq surge in fallujah while I was in college

felt weird man

I knew that war was bullshit at the time, but I felt like I should be fighting too

architects like their international firms and study abroad case study projects that help brown people with modern architecture
