To put it into perspective, most professions are starting to grow increasingly competitive in tough economic times, but engineers are almost unilaterally in demand, and any further investment in technology will only increase that. Pennsylvania has one of the lowest costs of living in the United States. And the United States, as a whole, isn't that bad. You're probably thinking of California...or somewhere not in the United States...

I guess I was misinformed...I lived in Fishkill, New York and paid a grand for a very average 2 bedroom apartment 12 years ago...In Kansas I pay 400 a month for a nice house with 2 bedrooms...I make slightly less than 55 grand and live very well here where as a I struggled out there. I was under the impression that places like Kansas, Oklahoma, Arkansas and Missourri were much cheaper but I may be wrong...wouldn't be the first time.

Dude the $55,000 is nothing compared to the $70,000 you make coming out with a masters. Plus my school is weird about it. Our undergrad program is a 5 1/2 year program, but it only takes 18 credit hours to get our masters.

Hahaha I'll give it its due consideration.

I'm really not sure what I will get.

Why do I get the impression that if i'd walked into your shop i'd know you'd most likely be the most miserable bored looking unhelpful member of staff in there.

I'll buy what I want where I want with whatever notes I want and it's your job to serve me. I pay your wages , so fuck off.

Having to do my homework 15 minutes before going to school. It happens every days, and I hate it.
