Anyone on here a student?

Stupid question but all the people that are bored at uni doing easy and often only one assignment problem, what do you think will happen in the work place when you have to do exactly the same day in day out. Surely you will find that boring also? (assuming you actually use your degree).

I did what I did at uni because I enjoyed it and found it fun, and intended on using it.

As for stress at Uni, I cant help but laugh Im afraid. Being self employed is one big ball of stress you cant get away from. If your working, you're worried about when its going to stop, when you're not working, you're worried about where the next bit of money is coming from, and when you have plenty of work on, most of your time is spent chasing people who owe you money at the same time as staving off people you owe money to!

yeh am at uni, studying civil engineering.

Of course there is! How much of you're borrowed money is paying for that lunatics salary?

Whats his explanation then? I rekon that people who dont walk out in the road without looking have common sense. IE They have a common sense that there are probably cars on it, seeing as its a road.

people with no common sence cannot put two and two together to make 4 (ie, its a road, so it will probably have cars on it).

Are you telling me you are on a course where you are being taught something different?????

No wonder the countrys in such a mess. People are graduating from Uni believing there is no such thing as common sense, getting a job in Health and Safety, and putting signs on knives saying 'Caution, knives are meant to be sharp' or signs on hair dryers saying 'warning, do not use in the shower'.

Suddenly it all makes sense!

Stress at uni is self imposed due to laziness. ;)
