@kdfrawg indeed. plus people forget that actually people drop out of apprenticeships or get injuries in trades, and that sometimes it's important to be able to retrain- thus finishing high school is a priority no matter what you choose to do as a career. everything has pluses and minuses. but no good going into manufacturing in the US for example

@nitinkhanna I keep wondering if I should move. certainly if/when I finish speciality training it's a possibility
@nitinkhanna IKR. in NZ, apparenlty the health services employing you pay for that stuff
@kdfrawg yeah bad enough for doctors who are actually earning well, let alone for university students, polytech or even simply school students many of whom are from families who can't afford it. and then everyone has the gall to say that we shouldn't be sending people to university we should push everyone into trades as if that's a cure-all for the poor. ffs.

@streakmachine do you think twitter crew are pro-Trump/part-alt-right? if so it'd explain a lot.
@nitinkhanna yeah I got a loan for part of it, i'm paying it off pretty quickly thankfully.
