Iono, man. A good teacher or two can make a huge difference in someone's life. It is a pretty noble cause, really. Without dragging the direction of the thread in undesired directions too much my big beef is with the bureaucracies, red-tape, and other bullshit stacked up against teachers preventing to do their job of..y'know..teaching. So,
just watch this instead.
But that's all a topic for a different thread.
Go to college, seventhshot. Just don't waste your time piddling between undecided majors for too long. Have at least a general idea or two of what you're interested in. Shop around for what colleges/universities/technical colleges/whatever give you the warm fuzzies in your happy place. Talk to professors about career choices, ask them questions and listen to their input. Talk, talk, talk with people. Network like your goddamn life depended on it. Make connections, get shit moving forward. Who knows, after graduating a classmate might could maybe very well be end up being the deciding factor on getting hired on at X job. I've seen that very thing happen at
least a half-dozen times since I started my network security degree.
