Thinking of Grad School?

Are you thinking of Grad School? Is it really necessary to get ahead in your job. Think carefully. I have friends who have advanced degrees and they were having problems finding a job. Is a MBA also necessary? I've heard getting experience is more important.

Also in Sales, you don't need a grad degree to really make some money in the field I'm in. It just takes a lot of personality, a sense of humor, guts, cold calling, talking to people, networking, expanding your network further, and following up with people. You have to be a people person first.

Yes, it take a great sense of humor to sell Pre-Need funerals and cemetery plots, which is what I'm doing.

I attended Grad school for one quarter only in Fall, 2010. I couldn't deal with all the work involved, since I started dating again, during that time period. Plus we had many conflicts on one of my teams. Ironically, I passed the class with the conflict team and didn't pass the other two classes on Sustainability. It was a new subject for me that I really wasn't that interested in before.

Maybe I should of invested my tuition money on a consignment shop instead, thinking about it now. I do still have a case at the Antique Mall though.

What I really should of done is compare more Grad school programs before I enrolled, but I didn't. So I paid the price, instead.

I've seen many men with Masters or a few PhDs on this site. I do admire them more though.
