that was true around the louisville area up until about 1973 ,, used to be a guy could tell his boss off in the morning and get fired at 10 am , grab a beer and a ham sandwich , then walk across the street or drive across town and start at 1 pm the same day working for the competitor or doing something entirely different from his other job ,.. and it didn't matter if you could barely spell C-A-T , or read , let alone graduate ,,.. some of my pals quit hi school went to work for 13 bux per hour building the Louisville zoo ,pouring concrete on the airport and interstate hiway , the contractors loved hiring farm boys that knew how to work and get the job done with team work ,,. and have common sense to run and maintain equipment and keep it going with a rubber strap and wire if need be ,,.I graduated hi school in 75,. but workedall week framing houses after midterm , I had to meet with the career guidance counselor twice per month and turn in a time log book.. only needed 34 credits to graduate ,,I got really educated at HARDKNOXCOLLEGE.paid my own way too ,,.with sweat ,blood and sometimes tears for my failures , But I never MADE THAT MISTAKE AGAIN ,. over the yrs I think that I have become wiser than most college graduates,,better organizer with people skills than those with masters degrees I have suffered from meeting ,, imho ,if you work hard and know how to delegate and appreciate talent you can overcome education diarrea, flares of bs , pompousity and hotair , and know italls and great bigplanner dreamers with a halfazed engineering degree that their daddy bought them.. I have dealt with them all and learned how to beat them or dodge them or join them.. a lot of that came from my christian catholic upbringing,and naturally from my hard working un educated parents dad went to 5th grade, dropt out to work the hay market peddling produce for his uncle , mom went to 8th grade,as most girls were expected to only do,, both my parents got a much better education during ww2 . in 1943 mom was running the parts shelf routes for Curtis wright building 4 engine airplanes .. boy ,,.was she a organizer
