    Human Resource Management degree from Auburn University. I'm studying now to take the GMAT and hopefully get into the UGA (Buckhead campus) to get my MBA.

    F22 production is done, but they agreed to up production of the Joint Strike Fighters. If they didn't up the production, there woud be tons of job losses at LM.

    How much is pilot school cause dang law school is already 30k a year easily. So you are coming out 90k in debt at least without books, housing, food etc.

    It's one of those professions where IF you take care of business you will make 90k in you second year of work. Hence why i am contemplating corporate law

    They want to cut planes from the F22 program but the current run should last through 2011 I have been told. The job I was offered would be in the C-130J program which had orders backlogged until at least 2020 with the current manning and until 2015 if the f-22 is dropped.

    Would be awesome if you did get in with Lockheed though. Good luck to ya.
    I appreciate it. I actually just called them to check up on my background check for a follow up interview and skills check.

    Working on my BA in Business Management. Got 39 credit hours left.

    Pretty much wasted my time and got a Associates degree in Automotive Technology but who knows..maybe it'll turn into something.

    I understand, what your saying about pilot school is pretty interesting. Good luck with it.. I was pursuing law school until a few weeks ago when I decided it was probably not the best choice right now with the economy and the competitive nature of law school/ jobs for law school. I was already accepted but was undecided on which school but now I am pursuing other things. I also didn't score as high on the LSAT as I would have hoped so I may also study for the year on my free time to retake the test.

    I have a Bachelors in Political Science and Masters in Public Administration.

    I was looking into Real Estate Law, international business law, or sports law. I am just deciding to work atleast a year and reexamine where I said and if I still really want to go. My sister is in law school right now and just told me to make sure its what I wanted to do so that I wouldn't waste my money. I also have talked to alot of previous professors and lawyers about law school and they say there alot of people with JDs will not make it into the law field doing what they want because of their grades or school. So with that in mind I am trying to get connected with lawyers and schools to discuss potentially working for them.

    Ideally I want to go into Sports law and work as a sports agent. I also have alot of desires to teach at the collegiate level. I have done alot of research with teachers so I have a great standing with my college. So the potential of working for them is very high.

    Fuck stance. Stance is for kids in skinny jeans with Justin Beiber haircuts. You don't need stance when you got swagger.

    One day I would like to work for FEMA, but I need more experience in other sectors/divisons of the field, I have my A.A.S from central georgia technical college already. I had a interview at the Medical Center of Central Georgia Monday. If everything goes well I will have my start there as a Ems Communications Specialist.
