I did collections for 5 years lol


anyways I work inside sales for a company called National Energy Equipment. We are a whoesalers for HVAC Propane and Petroleum parts.

I realize I forgot to add my education. I went to college a couple of years, then realized that the CMA program was instituting a degree requirement so I quickly did my pre-reqs and passed the entrance exam. Spent two years doing my CMA, and was designated in October. Now, for any of the professional designations (CMA, CGA, or CA) you will need a degree plus 2 or 3 years depending on what designation you pursue.

Currently just a lowly CSR @ eBay but will be leaving in 2 weeks to do the same for the city of Vancouver

Went to SFU graduated with HONS, took my CSC and CFP while working as a bank teller to work as an Financial Planner for the same institution. While I was a planner I took my CFA which was one of the most useless courses I ever took.

Ended up getting into the MF wholesaling business and then moved into institutional sales for a trust firm in New York. Learned how to day trade while in New York, failed at that. Went back to standard employment as a strategist for a mutual fund company, got proficient at day trading, decided to become extremely cheap due to fear of the party ending in the financial world and now day trade part time and work at another fund company that has been nice enough not to lay me off.

I did not graduate highschool either.

After HS i went through quite a few jobs feilds but none of them stuck. about 5 years ago i started to do IT work. Landed a job with a well known Hosting company, while working their i went to VCC and got some certificates. After those were completed i was given a big raise and promotion.

Now I own my own Server Hosting company geared towards the online gaming community.

Im only 25 What i have learned through all this is that my friends are now finishing thier degrees and still working at starbucks making 8$ a hour. Not knowing WTF they are going to do with thier degrees. Good luck paying off those student loans guys! Im going to hawaii in 4 weeks :P

I work at a large hotel in banquets + catering right now, going to Camosun part time for my Business Admin degree, and working on my commercial pilot licence as well.

Thats what happens when you chose a non-professional degree! Do remember however, that those who do have a professional degree are always in the top tier income bracket. In no way should the above message discourage people from attending University!

yeah, sucks for those that get any degree they can and not something they want to pursue in a career

^^^

That's right. Don't get a degree just because your parents want you to. Figure out what interests you, and get education based on that. It may be U, college, tradeschool, or even no school. There's nothing worse than working a career doing something you don't like.

Pilot - Live far away from where I want too, in places much too cold for any sensible person.

Schooling - Went through a college which is the long route, but I have a fancy piece of paper that says Aviation Diploma on it.

But I do love my job, and I can't see myself doing anything else.

I Sell computers and managed IT Services... We mostly aim for hotels and small sized businesses with a good amount of computers who need IT people but cant afford it...
Pays the bills and great experience with customer service.... No Schooling...

Business Development Manager (basically glorified sales) to major mining companies around world + Corporate Development/Communications Manager for several publicly traded companies.

Also assesses M&A deals and look for CPC transactions on TSX for possibilities. I was a banker (not IB) for big box bank downtown in the previous life. Enjoying the freedom of the new gig for now - shaky industry though, many layoffs in the last little while ;p

I work at a law firm in beijing. I am the firms resident English speaker and review proposals/client queries/other emails/attend conferences/get blitzed with foreign clients that visit/visit clients.

Poli Sci grad UBC.

Just started commercial crab fishing wit my pops pay is site depending on how smart your captain is it'll depend how much u make pay Is shit but I do it for my dad I get ten percent of everything but if I plan on doing it forever my Dad is willing to step down and let me call the shots np schooling except for maybe some swimming lessons

I wasnt trying to discourage University by any means. All im trying to say is figure out what you want to do after HighSchool. Figure out life, figure out your life... then lay the tracks of where you want your life to go after you figure out what your goals in life actually are.
