Brismo, you dont know. If you love racing, you gotta atleast like F1, Hamilton is the man for the drivers championship. Ya he has a gay look to him. considering he is a rich Englishman, i think most spoiled rich english kids are gay, but the guy killed everyone in the last qualifying match and dominated the last race in shanghi. Sorry to offend any of you spoiled rich english kids, if there is any. which i doubt it, because all they know is ferrari, lambo, and porche...

as for the job thing, i reduced my hours at two racing shops, and got jobs at starfucks and sears auto, needed that constant income, beggers cant be choosers.
it just sucks being back at square one which a job job and not a growing career job.

dude i feel ya im in the same boat. i had a full time job at an auto shop i wasn't making bank but it was enough. it took me about 3-4 months to get that job. then about 4 months into it i had to go back to school the new semester started. i had told my manager at the beginning that i was going to be staying in school. well i was trying to work out an hours basis with him and my hours would add up to be like 2 hours short of full time. so he said he had no room for a part time employee.

but i figured school is a better choice for me right now just wish i could have kept my job part time.

just keep searching something will come up. and some of these guys are right beggars can't be choosers. you gotta take what you can get. get established at one job and either move up in the ranks there. or work there while you pursue another job that you want.

lol people never cease to amaze me.

if you dont have a job and a decent income you dont get to have the finer things in life. thats the bottom line.

if the finer things in life to you are your car then you have to wait for that until YOU can afford it. and when i say afford it that doesnt entail mooching off of mommy and daddy and not paying your bills because you want to have the shiniest car.

sell you car and get a CHEAP good running beater.

find yourself a job. and i dont care if its scraping the fat off the fryers at mcdonalds.

get a job and work your *** off. if you do well and put in effort someone will notice as mark said.

it seems that the mentality of the young has become i get to do nothing and have everything.

im not that old but ****. get off your *** and get what you want for yourself. you cant depend on anyone to give it to you. and i hate to tell you....you arent special you dont get to have everything given to you because thats what you want.

yeah he might have said a couple things i don't agree with but there is no reason to be harsh. if you have read the thread which it looks like you read half of the first post. you will see that he was talking about selling his fc for a dd. yeah his goal for a dd was a little high but whatever he will learn.

and not one person on here is acting like they want anything handed to them. try reading the whole thread before offering input.

Please speak for yourself. I would love to be handed things. But not those little porno cards they hand out on the vegas strip. I got 2 drawers full of those...

Degrees help in your ability to find a good job. The higher your degree, the more you get paid and as you move up, the less work you actually have to do. You don't necessarily need a degree to make money, but it definitely boosts your chances.

Where I grew up (I'm 25 now) most of my peers went to college and have steady incomes now. If you can't afford it, you can get student loans, but if you are having a tough time making a decent living you may want to consider applying yourself and studying. (not a major like psychology that doesn't pay off)

Unfortunately most people don't have the patience or drive to apply themselves to finish their studies and get a good job but if you are stressing about it, then do something about it.

Good luck,

Student loans??? What student loans???

They're not even much. This short-term debt shouldn't be an excuse of attaining any form of higher education.

Banning eatclutch would be best too. Have you seen his useless threads and posts? Ridiculous, and it's nowhere funny
