Hello everyone.
Well, I have been reading my two books. I must say though it has been a year since i started with electronics and i thought that i would be alot father then i am right now or at least should be. I just lack that discipline doing this on my own, i read but then i get lazy. When i was going to night school the discipline was there but the class was to fast pace, i was not understanding some stuff. So i figured learning on my own would be better, then i would go back to school and have it easier then. What or how do some of you out there that is trying to learn on your own keep or do for the discipline ?
Except now I look around at jobs and i wonder this. The school i was attending just has either a certificate program or an associates program no bachelor's. When i look at job descriptions or requirements most state you need a bachelors degree or 5 years experience.
I feel that even if i learn electronics on my own, without the paper i will not get a job right?
Then i do not want to get a certificate or associates that i cannot even use... so it seems i have no options here....
I cannot go to full time school or days do to job and family not to mention my wife lost her job.
I would like to get rid of the house and get an apartment or mobile home which would be at the highest 800 a month instead of 1400 a month for my house. Then i could stop working and have my wife work nights until i am done with school.
I had told my wife that her brother moved out her parents basement why dont we move in this way she would only have to work part time but she is against it i do not know why it sucks sooo bad though.
I had also thought of moving back in with my parents for the same scenario but i doubt my dad would be for it. Not to mention he retired and is an engineer imagine that i could go to school come home and sit with him for an hour or two in his basment which is like an electronics lab. I think i am gonna call and see what he would think. I dont want to piss him off but its not like i am asking for him to pay for the school. i would give him rent to help him out.
It's just that my job now was good when i was single but with family and kids i would like to retire not to mention send my kids to college but i wont be able to in this position i am in now. not to mention i get no respect in this position and i seen how my dad was treated at his work and man they loved him total respect... He still does consulting work for them and everythime they talk they beg him to come back. I want to be an engineer soo bad i wish i went to college after high school instead of thinking my friends were what i needed not a career big mistake....
Can i get some opinions or some advice from some of you guys out there i am tired of feeling there is no way out and i cannot do anything about it. I will also look into online schooling as well but for engineering i would rather be in the class... thanks guys
