I left high school in Yr 11, only because I had an oppourtunity to do a Rural Merchandise Sales Traineeship lined up already. I skipped a maths class, went and saw the boss of the branch off my own bat, and he took me on. Took that up, and now I am the youngest Merchandise Sales Manager in our nationwide company.
It $hits me that the company is no longer as interested in putting trainee's on, as now they cannot find staff to do the jobs for some reason... Mines are taking everyone in, and they are paying a crapload too.
Do a trade. No bugger seems to want to do one these days. Everyone is going to uni (I have nothing against Uni) and once you get thru the apprenticeship, you can make some really good coin too.
Thats my 2c worth. Good luck with it man
Cheers
Darran
