you can just go too work at the end of teenage-school but you will get very lousy jobs, but it is most common to get a "student grade" then you get a nice, cozy job and a nice house an´stuff BUt if you go and learn to be something then you can expect to get a big, no sorry, huge paycheack but that is so many years of learning that you´ll be k-like 32 when you finish school. |

wow... Only 12 *required* of us. But if you want a good job then you have to do more or a lot more to be some things; like a doctor... I think they have... uhm... *counts* 19 years of school all together... but the typical college is 4 years, resulting in a usual of 16 years of school *thinks about that* WOW!! O.O That's a hell of a lot of schooling!!
