Since you do not know anything about me, i will expand your knowledge.
I worked for over 11 years doing medical billing and coding with poorly spent dreams of being a pro chef. I can cook at pro level, but could never do it as a profession. It would lose all the fun for me to be paid to cook food. I quit that job for a better paying one at a light building company. I was told i would run their IT systems in-house and ended up doing receiving and never got the raise i was promised. They sacked me, but not before i enrolled into school again.
Fast forward a few months and now i'm two months deep into Pharmacy Technician school here in Jersey. Truth be told, i love it. I worked as a tech many years back and enjoyed the work, but not the pay. Today to be a tech you need to be certified and the salary goes up with a certificate, so i'm all about it. End goal is to work in a hospital or institutional pharmacy making compounds or something like that. Hard work, but honest and respectable work. Ya with me?
I have a 4.0 gpa, deans list, etc. Great!! Right? Yes, but now we've started the math end of things. This is where i'm weak. I will 100% be in need of tutoring. Shit, man.
Sidebar: My wife is pregnant with our first child and i'm already imagining it's educational future with me as an involved parent. Yay!
Back to math: Parents of SG land, i beg of you, be involved in your kid's education. When i went to school i was never taught algebra. Never. I was one of the many kids who were swallowed by the educational system. Check your kid's homework. Help them get tutoring. Make them study for an hour or two ever night. Fuck, it's so important. Make sure they learn math. I get basic math. I can do day to day math. The minute algebra come in i lose my mind and my head explodes. (eww)

Tomorrow something more entertaining. Hell, maybe someone will have read this post and comment on it.
