Plumbing is one of those professions that white-collar workers love to bring up as an example of jobs that makes lots of money without a college degree. Contrary to popular belief, plumbing is not easy money . Unlike most modern jobs, you have to complete a long and arduous apprenticeship before you can start making the big bucks. Plumbing requires a willingness to get dirty, which most people are unwilling to do for eight hours daily. It's hard work, and if you can stomach it, you've got a gre…

Another week of w*rk

You can only work so many hours every week before you crack. While some think 40 hours a week is a back-breaking amount of working hours, others must tolerate 50-60 hours of weekly work to stay afloat financially. In my opinion, that's when you start getting a bit loopy. If you're working nearly every day without any breaks, you put yourself at risk for long-term health issues and general distress. If you have no time for loved ones or hobbies, then what is the hard work really for? Some people…

It's not for the weak

What you do outside of work hours is your business. No customer, parent, or boss should have any say in what you do when you're off the clock. I feel bad for people with highly scrutinized professions, like teachers, who need to drive an hour away to feel comfortable going to a bar.

When someone talks about you behind their back, they have all the power. However, when you overhear the sh*t talking, you get some of the power back and are at least able to defend yourself against their claims about you. This Uno Reverse Card puts the sh*t-talker in an awkward position because you were never really supposed to know what they felt…

Um, what?

It's a thorny topic

Mr. Krabs in the flesh!

Not all memes are for everybody. They're much like stinky french cheese at a viciously overpriced grocery store. You might smell one and initially think, “Wow, this smells like battery acid. What an unpleasant thing to put in my mouth or near my brain.” However

Remember the days when finding the right place to eat lunch in the cafeteria was the most high-stake decision you could make? When you're in school, it really is critical to find a group and stick with them during your 45 minutes of freedom. If you don't have a group you can tolerate eating with every day, you might end up eating lunch in the stairwell, which I definitely did not do during my sophomore year of high school. Luckily, eating lunch alone is a lot less of a big deal when you're an a…
