I haven't done badly for myself but I believe that is because I wasn't lazy when I went into the job market.
I'm not talking about kids that are just lacking motivation. I am talking about kids who come to school armed and looking to start trouble. Not the "bullies" that the press was so excited about, I mean the killers and dirt bags who couldn't care less about school, other than it being a good source for future drug deals.
