How many well paying jobs out there dont require you to have some type of education?The majority of what one learns is in the field, and many times the school doesn't teach many things......because it's text-book, not real world.

The old heads do break rules, but many do it constantly and never get hurt whereas the newbies are so brainwashed with rules that they often forget about their surroundings.
