<p>[QUOTE="John Skelton, post: 3604031, member: 92092"]This sounds like what my son went theough. He came out of college with a degree in history and a minor in Spanish. Now he works tracking packages coming into the states for FedEx. So some of you who buy coins from overseas probably got tracked by him. Anyway, even though he didn't listen to me (so what else is new?), he could have used his college contacts to network into a job in his field. Especially since he bailed in his last year on being a teacher like he started out. But he learned how to think for himself and do research, which he liked. He had very good history teachers in high school, teachers who had started out wanting to be lawyers, but found out both professions required research skills, which they liked. So they became teachers.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
