Long and short of it: Rejected from pharmacy school. No wait-list, nothing. Just flat rejected.

Seeing as I'm not a veteran of a world war and not a great orator, becoming Hitler II is not a career option.

Now I'm stuck wondering what the fuck I even do. Thoughts right now are janitor in shitty store living in shitty apartment by myself or something along those lines. Already worked four fucking years trying to be a doctor of some sort (choice of specialty varied over the last few years) and now I can't even get in to one of the easiest kinds of programs to get in to.

Go the MBA route and do something with that maybe? Not like I'd know what to do with it.

Just start throwing ideas out that aren't blatantly stupid, really. (Ex: Israeli Foreign Legion)

Obligatory: Damn it. Hope you non-degenerates are having a good day though!

Swore off plumbing when I saw guys cutting out old shit pipe over head in a hospital with a sawzall. Pipefitting is a much cleaner trade and pays just as well if not more. Now I work at an electrical outfit and that's really the bees knees.

That's drainage, the shitty part of plumbing. Most of my work is replacing valves, pipe, hot water tanks and other fixtures.

Still part of the job. Fucking shitty

Look around in your area, you will see companies that specialise in drainage, companies that specialise in new construction, residential or commercial service etc. Plumber is a general term, much like engineer or doctor. You specialise in what you're good in and enjoy. Yes, some people like drainage.

Do you charge more for drainage?

[–] [deleted] • 0 pt

I don't do it. I have a couple of companies to recommend based on value and customer service. Drainage is usually new, green guys or guys who are not the best troubleshooters. Although you still have to have a clue when it comes to larger, more complicated buildings.
