Proud Pappa, Part Dux!
« on: June 28, 2012, 01:41:05 PM »
Just got an email from my 27 year old little girl that she's decided to convert her CE credits and transfer into an AS in Business Administration that her bank is picking up the entire tab for, tuition, books, the whole shebang!

Proud as a peacock I am!  

I know I knock the college boys on occasion but this makes me happy!  I would be working right now had I finished and she's enjoyed her nine years in banking!  I can't say I've enjoyed everything I've done since I left the military 33 years ago...

 :D

Congrats Dad!

She has been well educated by you and by the school:  She knows enough to see what the boss wants, move in that direction, and accept their reward for doing so.  If they want her to get a BA or BS in the future it will be possible, and they will remember her willingness and ability to work  in the system.

Congrats again!  You done good.

Nothing wrong with a college edumacation.......... as long as there is a good solid family-taught and family-based history of common sense to back it up.

Congrats.

To them nothing comes before the Constitution of these United States of America. For this we are all labeled potential terrorists. ~ Dean Garrison

Looks like she's got a plan to get ahead and knows what she's got to do to get there. I wish her all the luck in the world, but she sounds as though she intends to make her own luck.
