[QUOTE="GuideMe, post: 635406, member: 18233"] Yeah, maybe all the anticipation and nervousness got to him. From your bio in your signature, I don't see anything too alarming. I know [U][I]many[/I][/U] people who dropped/flunked out of college, smoked a lot of weed, blah, blah, blah. Now they are pretty successful and I'm not just saying that. In the company I use to work for (a fortune five hundred company) a lot of my coworkers were going back to college which surprised me. I asked them if they were furthering their degree and some of them were but a lot of them were actually completing their degree from when they dropped out of college. Don't ask me how they got the job they had, but they did which wasn't too unbelievable because I didn't even have a college degree and I got an accounting job at this company too. He is still 19 years old, I am sure he will get it together, again, just going off the stuff in your signature, doesn't seem to be that bad. I know you're ready for him to grow up and get on with it though and I'm sure your very concerned about it. But give him a chance to get use to the working world. I'd be lying if I said I never lost a few jobs because I was anxious all night and couldn't go to work because I was dead by 6:30 in the morning. Could not function. Could not move. Dead tired as a log. Eventually I grew out of it by the time I was 24 I would say. [/QUOTE]
