i quit mine like 3 weeks ago. kind of been retired most of this year so far

/envious

I work with a lot of people in their 50s and 60s, and quite a few have retired in the time I've been at my company. I get jealous every time, as I've got at least another 20 years of work to go. I need to find a sugar momma, this working for a living stuff has got to go.

I hate my job, but I've only got 3 more days of it left. Then I get to go back to school, which is suuuper exciting!

To repeat my favorite Drew Carey quote (because it can never repeated too many times): "Oh, you hate your job? There's a club for that. It's called everyone. We meet at the bar."

I know I'm getting old because I still enjoy repeating the same jokes over and over and over until everyone else is sick of them.

School is not that exciting, but schedule flexing is fun :D.

School is hella exciting compared to my current life.
As well as school means I'm moving forward in life, which is beyond exciting to me.

What program did decide you enroll in?

metro. · « **Reply #12147 on:** August 22, 2012, 12:50:21 AM »

Last year I was in computer Science, which I wasn't a huge fan of tbh. I really like discrete structures, which is more math then anything else.

This year I'm going into Economics. Yay for BSc.

Im only 30, but I saved a bunch of cash over the winter and just havent felt like working much this year. So Ive been living off that. I might be able to last another 2 months before I NEED to find a job again. In the meantime, Im trying to start like 3 businesses lol

Sounds like a friend of mine in his early 40s. He got laid off a lucrative job as a project manager, loafed around for a year or so (his running joke was, "Oh, yeah, I'll start looking for a job next week,") and then he wound up starting a cross-fit gym.

I can't afford to not work, I've got a mortgage to pay for, as much as I'd like to take a year or two off and explore some other possibilities.

Computer science is math, discounting anything code-related

Tax laws?

metro. · « **Reply #12153 on:** August 22, 2012, 02:49:18 AM »

No, taxes. He's going to be an accountant iirc.

Dhruv · « **Reply #12154 on:** August 22, 2012, 03:35:22 AM »

Accountants here have to study these subjects
Financial Reporting
Strategic Financial Management
Auditing and Professional Ethics
Corporate and Allied Laws
Advanced Management Accounting
Direct Tax Laws
Indirect Tax Laws
Information Control System

So tax laws are very much a part of it.

Not saying it isn't. Just don't like it personally. Too many things to take into account... oh snap. Anyway, I prefer more designy things.
