ITT commercial for education

[Deja Q]

Are their education services free? They have this 20-something guy saying he's tired of working for minimum wage.

In today's society, you need TWO such jobs just to survive. How the hell do you live on your own, with 2 jobs, and have enough time and energy to learn something for which a job may or is likely not available after you graduate?!

1. I did it. It ain't easy...

And I had a family at the time, too. $5 an hour job stripping furniture (the Minimum Wage was $2.35 then) from 7:30 to 4:30, rush home, get to class by 6 PM (sometimes, depending on traffic, I could grab a bite while I changed my clothes/washed the stink of dead varnish off me)
Then get home after 10PM, study a while, hit the rack, Wash, Rinse, Repeat.

Over-extended on Student Loans to pay for it all...2 years of this to get an Associate's Degree.

And still, things didn't start looking up until Poppy Bush was retired to Kennebunkport.
