I was telling my dad i dont need to go to school anymore

[Bojack]

Honestly; I think the dude is just fuckin with me at this point. I told him that i don’t need pharmacy tech school. I can just read a book and pass the board. And that i can be a software engineer by building a portfolio and learning some languages, instead of spending 5 years to get a dumb cs degree. And this is how the dude responded. He gave some gruff shrug and ignored me, then a second later he says, “just go to school.” Dam i was shut down hard

You should only go to school to go ER.

 

[max_frisch]

[thereallegend]

Who's gonna hire you without a diploma?
Also, if you go the university you get to meet girls, make friends, do a bunch of other fun stuff too.

I went there for 6 years and did nothing of that, meet 0 girls, made 0 friends, just went to class didn't pay attention and went home.

What do you mean, did you actually go and talked to people?

You don't need to get killed by cops, you can kill yourself before, you can also go ER and get away with it, find a way I'm 100% confident there is one (e.g.: go er and move to a different country, change your face with plastic surgery, go back to your home country go ER again and escape again).

yeah, I started conversation with 11 individuals but it's impossible to make friends when you are in classes of 100 people and your classmates are different each class you take.

You need to form a group, a clique you know...
Also I don't know what's with the American education system, in my country when you join an university everyone goes to the same courses, seminars, labs, etc. There might be some courses with 100 people, but the labs and seminars that require more careful work are made from groups of 10-20 people.

Quite difficult to get anywhere with a skill without official evidence of it

cope there are thousands getting jobs as a software engineer with no degrees, you get your first job and after that no one gives a shit about whether you have a degree or not
