  • Fucking SAME. I bartended and served through college (my degree doesn’t pay well due to YouTube tutorials that have flourished in my industry, lol ouch) and after, and then finally at 30 I started temping in manufacturing, which led to me permanently hired at a huge company with ridiculous benefits, and am now a supervisor in engine assembly that will make 6 figures in 3 years.

    I desperately wish I had gone into trade school when I was 18.

    Aide, visibly shaken - “I honestly don’t know, I’ve never seen him like this…”

    concerned family member - "is…is he out there right now?*

    CFM “earlier you said 27 holes… he must be exhausted just trying to cope…this is really bad”

    Aide - “IT IS SO BAD PLEASE HELP HIM!!

    CFM - “God be with me, I will get him to come inside and drink a diet coke. Hopefully he will snap out of this madness…”

    Aide - “…please…go with God!”

    CFM - “God will guide me to him. Wish me luck!”

    removes leather shoes, hops in cart, and speeds away through the green grass, nary a thought to use the given path… this is the most important rescue in the world. People say that it was the most important, maybe, probably, the most important, ever.
