    Maybe it's something he just likes to do. Just because you score high on a standardized test, doesn't mean that you're forced into some office job that pays six figures a year. I wouldn't mind being a trucker like QD. Traveling and seeing the country while making some decent money.

    The saddest thing in life is wasted talent.

    I disagree. I would much rather a person set out and do whatever it is that makes them happy than push themselves into something that would make them miserable.

    I scored rediculously high on my ASVAB when I joined the military. My recruiter thought I would go Intelligence, but I joined Infantry. Why? Because I knew that I'd be miserable behind a desk all day. I was much happier in the field with my rifle, preparing for combat, sleeping in the dirt, and eating terrible food with my battle-buddies.

    People have this great expectation of those whom they deemed gifted or talented. I think it's sad that these individuals will let others influence them into doing something that they truly don't want to do. F*ck those people and their expectations. I could have the skills and talent to be a great politician but, if I find my life more enjoyable as the guy riding the back of the garbage truck, guess what I'm going to do?

    You see people wasting talent. I see people doing what they want to do so they can enjoy their lives the way that they want to.

    Who's that sad for? You? Because I'm happy as fuck. I'm home everyday and I average out at around $30/hour or more.

    People that don't know and don't take the time to know(before they jump the gun and stereotype) are funny people to me. Later, QD.
