[quote=spdrun]The pay is good, but can they live with themselves considering that they’re making a nice contribution to environmental destruction?
Oil should have been left in the 20th century — we should be 95% renewable, hydro, and nuclear energy at this point, using hydrogen for high-density storage….[/quote]
I understand what you’re saying, spdrun.
Except … we’re not. Thus, we have these lucrative Halliburton jobs, right here in our own country! Why wouldn’t a 6’3″ fmr HS football center NOT want to take one of these positions for a few years in order to “launch” their adult lives … in lieu of college … to take time to figure out what they want to major in first … OR to see if college is really right for them?
Not EVERY parent has $1000 per month lying around to spend on a college dorm and mealplan, even given they will only pay in-state tuition. And college freshman in OK and TX public universities are required to live on campus for their first year. If already married, there are apts available on campus for them.
And what about the family has two or more kids in college at the same time?
This is an awesome opportunity for these young men, IMHO.
