ASHOOR said:slit, just like many before you, you misunderstood me too. It was a normal conversation, and what else is there to talk about when you just got to know the person? you start with location, age, etc....then you start with education. And I am not going to hide my education because the person on the other side is not interested in it. Hell with them, I am interested in it.
Again: it is one thing to be educated and quiet another to hate education. This girl hated education out right!

ASHOOR said:I was on the text chat yesterday, for the first time in many weeks (under my name, not an admin)
I started talking to a girl, and the conversationg was going great.
Then I opened the subject of education, which I always do. I just like to talk about it.
I preceded to tell her about my education background and degree. Sadly enough, she seemed not
very interested in this aspect of the conversation. She told me, and I quote:
"I don't care about a guy's education...degree, doctor, masters, doesn't bother me. Even if a guy
has no high school education, it doesn't bother me. In fact, I would rather a guy with no
education..."
It was kinda weired really. I mean it is her choice not to care about a guy's education, but to actually say it in such a way, is just a big turn-off. You work so hard on your education, and then meet a person like this who doesn't appreciate it, is really not encouraging. Of course, I didn't study to impress this girl or anyone else. But education is something that people should look to, and be interested in.
I had to end the conversation right there, not because of her interest in school alone, but the way in which she went about saying it. I didn't even ask her about her own education.
I howver, did invite her to the forums, so if she is registered by now, feel free to defend yourself

Its good to have that degree to fall back on but its not a prerequisite in finding someone to love and cherish for the rest of your life. Understanding and Communication are important... :beee:
TTC drivers make a lot. I saw an ad in the employment section and it's a reasonable pay for a beginner, an hour it's $19.23 but I had a customer who drives the bus and I was curious to know if he enjoyed his job; although he said he only liked it for the pay, he also mention that he gets paid more because of some union thing that happened.

There is nothing worse in the world than an unedcuated person, guys or girls... How unattractive it is to be with someone who doesnt know whats going on around them, or someone who gives little Value to hard work, manners, decency, honesty, trust and most of all LOVE..
All these come from Education...thieves dont choose to become Thieves....their lack of education wether its at home or school is what drives them to do bad things!!!!
ultoMa said:holy **** dudes, to each his own...who gives a **** if someone doesn't value education or gladly degrades it, they are entitled to their own opinions...
we know nothing about this girl...her background, her upbringing, etc....all we have is this "chat" that ashoor had with her, which means we have no right to judge her beliefs...
if she doesn't think education is important, so what?
Angel2 said:education is a plus, but I personally don't care if a guy has his PHD/MA/BA or not......because I've seen plenty who had a degree and they are not as smart as they make themselves to be???
having a degree just means you are really specialized in one area....it doesn't make you superior or above anyone else who doesn?t have a degree
ASHOOR said:Some of you finally get the point finally, and what I truly meant. One thing however, which you guys are not getting across is whether it is Ok for someone to hate education, and think those who are studying are wasting their time?? I mean, it is ok if that person doesn't want to study, because they can still grow up to be great people, and quiet successful.? But are they right in putting down educated people or academic education as a concept? if you have been to school, or currently attend school, do you think your school is a waste of time? if it is, and you agree with the girl, then why are you wasting your time?? this is my point, I hope it is finally clear now
ASHOOR said:Yes BlueIce, it is not what I was thinking, although some gave some good replies, even if they were defending what the girl said about education and the educated.
I remember just a few months ago, and a few years ago, same posts about education and lack their of amongst our Assyrian teens, produced some very opposite replies from what we are reading now. Some people complained about 'why Assyrians are not educated or persuing a higher education...'
All of a sudden, education is now optional and not very important. Imagine what the kids or teens reading this post will think, or what 'good' example we are giving them. I opened a can of worms by opening this thread after all
