I hate lazy millienials
My friend from grad school was over for the weekend with her husband and 19 year old son.

He was a a Florida state ranked tennis player

Sophomore an University of Pennsylvania with a dual major in physics and chemical engineering

He had a published scientific paper in academic scientific journal in high school

I told him he was lazy and would work at Starbucks when he graduated fishing

Sounds like something someone would recite at a poetry slam.

Unrelated, but our waiter/bartender at Buffalo Wild Wings in Texarkana is a recent UT grad in Chemistry. Looking for a better job, don't know his grade point, but I'm sure he didn't have any published papers.

Why would you call the kid lazy? Didn't want to take out your garbage?

When considering US based operations of guides/outfitters, check and see if they are NRA members. If not, why support someone who doesn't support us? Consider spending your money elsewhere.

NEVER, EVER book a hunt with BLAIR WORLDWIDE HUNTING or JEFF BLAIR.

I have come to understand that in hunting, the goal is not the goal but the process.

I was pulling his chain.

Telling him not to take a high paying quant Job on Wall Street as 1/3 of his class does.

Told him to go work at the best battery or energy firm.

But he is most likely going the research route.

He said 1/2 his class was America - the rest Indian and Chinese.

I don’t think there are too many unemployed chemical engineers. Pure chemistry might be a whole other issue.

Also private school is running 70k a year - that is expensive.

It's outrageous. Why I can educate mine at the Univ of Texas for only 30k a year. I feel so damn lucky I have lunch money left. Frowner

Sometimes public education / government pays off.

UT Austin is good bang for the buck for instate tuition.

I am shocked at law school tuition especially since associate starting salaries have stayed the same since
1999 at most blue chip /white shoe law firms.

Yes college is exspensive;almost as much as ignorance.My step daughter got an all paid scholorship to Smith (she was + is a brainiac)+ is now a Dr. practicing in Laos for free because she cares + has already made her packet.One son still goes to college while my other 2 have built up their own businesses,The good work ethic of my family (myself in this case) is passed along to the next generation.There is NO excuse for laziness or the lack of ful fillment of the next set of players of this nation. Yeah,I hate dead beats too!


Never mistake motion for action.
