Yet another ramble about why school is idiotic

Let's compare a job with school.

You attend school 5 days out of a 7 day week. You're told what to do all day and given "assignments" to complete. Many of said assignments are to be completed during time in which you aren't even physically in school; which cuts into your 2 measley days off even more. Most outrageous of all, you have to ASK whether or not you are allowed to go urinate...

Now as for a job, you are completing necessary, purposeful tasks in order to benefit yourself and others in direct and/or indirect ways. (Depending on your job) there is no frivolous "home work" to do. Once your hours are done; your hours are done. -->YOU GET PAID TO COMPLETE THE TASK(S).<-- You can CHOOSE whatever job you want to take; someone doesn't come out of nowhere and assign you things.

So there you have it. School fails yet again. It needs to be optional; it goes without saying that most people would rather just enjoy the life that we are given for the limited amount of time that it lasts in ways other than being forced to stay in daycare for the majority of the day while mommy and daddy work.
