working at the airport again this summer
God, I was totally stumped today "As we discussed in class (3 months ago), how does the existance or lack of defensive territorialism in microvine voles demonstrate the relationship between the costs and benefits of territoriality and key ecological variables?"
hey f1michel, I wouldn't mind having a moped if I don't get run down by stupid cagers in vancouver :p

I'm majoring in psychology, sorry I don't really get what you mean Aftica, can you rephrase?
wakeech and BIU, if you're full time student this coming year, I'll let you know around november when CBSA does all the hiring for their student program, a great experience for future jobs and it pays pretty well.

What I wa sgetting at was if you were in the IT space, I might be able to shed some light on the work environment. The only Psych work I have been involved with in the past decade is evolutionary psych and mapping data to predicitive models. Sorry, can't help you out on summer employment. Best of success in your exams.

I see Aftica, yea there's not a lot of jobs open these days for just a BA in psyc, you gotta have at least a masters to do anything really, and a PHD to actaully practice... so my BA's just more of a generalised degree where you can apply a lot of the stuff to other disciplines cause you have to deal with people in this world.
but thanks for the offer anyways Aftica :D

soci250 can. crim. justice exam here I COME! wish me luck guys

just a hint to you guys...

if you want finanicial security in life...school really means little...
a J-O-B means very little and is not a serious option for financial freedom...

at the end of day, if you want to own more cars than just the 8 you have to be in Business/and or Investing

A good book to read which elaborates more on my point is "Rich Dad, Poor Dad" by Robert Kiyosaki.

Just thought Id share with you what school never told me. I have a Law degree and it was good education, but it never taught me how to be financial independant....
