My mom never even finished high school... After having me after her 19th birthday she started at a minimum wage job at a grocery store 3 months after I was born... Me, being 30 years old marks that my mom has been with the job for 30 years. My mom got a management position. My mom found a good man who raised me along with my mom and my grandma. We moved into a new house at 13 years old my mom and despite everything that's happen to me (abuse, rape, neglect) my life got better after my stepdad came around. Before my stepdad I was going between my moms/grandma who made sure I at least eat to my dad who locked my sibling and me up and not feed us days on end... I miss my moms side of the family though even when they're drug addicts and did stupid **** and well I forgave my uncles part of the abuse. I miss them both and want to see my last uncle who's alive. anyways I think my point is without trying to ramble on too much is that you can have a good job without an education... it's just harder to do so. Education isn't everything.
