Guccifer casts out Hillary

In any case, while I can agree if you're saying that high school in general can use a lot of improvement. The circumstances where someone can say, get a stable, good paying manufacturing job with just a HS diploma looks severely reduced. Unless you mean HS should be geared so students can handle how to function at least at a moderate level in society, then yes sure, I also certainly agree with that idea. And maybe stop with the practice of failing students upward, because that is just passing the buck and shortchanging the student, and potentially society in the long run. What I'm saying is the devil is in the details, as always.

High Schools in the US appear to get most people to what used to be the 8th grade level, many beyond that. In our more modern, services and information age economy, it's not sufficient to have mere fundamentals. Competition is in nuances of added value, and customer service. Soft skills such as attitude, organization, problem solving, critical thinking are as important as the core of mathematics, reading comprehension, written and oral communications. We should give equal weight, value and emphasis to trade oriented schools -- designated to train for specific areas of employment, such as robotics repair technician, graphic design, or CNC programmmer.

Does your boss say that to you a lot throughout the day? Because that sounds adorable, like some mid 90's work sitcom. Anyway, I haven't had a boss in years, since I'm classified as a freelancer.

You can kick your own ass. Also, adorable. :-)
