It’s not all about education either. I mean graduating from a good school gives you a better chance but not synonymous with success.
I went to langara first then sfu (university transfer to save money) then got a shit ass history & philosophy degree. This useless piece of paper did nothing for me. What ultimately got me where I am was playing mmorpg (lineage 2) with a guy who worked at CN. He got me in as a conductor and then I moved up to port manager (take that mom!!! Who says playing games is pointless).
Having a piece of paper that says I can write essays did diddly squat. 45k of student loans too (that I used to invest instead of schooling).
