37. Well, that's one thing I've learned in the years I spent NOT going to college...
I am a very loyal person, which is pretty stupid in the business world. I have stayed at lesser-paying jobs just because I didn't want to disappoint my employer by leaving and job-hopping. I'm at a job now that I don't especially like (hell, even quit once, but they called and asked me to come back), but I still stay there.

I think part of it is due to me being a very "status quo" type of person. Kinda like, the devil you know is better than the devil you don't, or whatever that saying is.

Whenever I get my degree and move on, I definitely will not have the same sort of stupid loyalty that I had when I was younger, because really, it rarely pays off in today's world.
