Do you guys think I'm wasting my time? Right now im taking general ed units at a community college, with hopes of transferring in 2-3 years as a business major. Starting the spring semester, im also planning to take an industry trade as an aircraft mechanic, and continuing the community college units with night classes. My problem is that I'm pretty indifferent to getting a degree in business, even though it'd be nice to have. It's moreso because I'm don't want to dissapoint my parents who are very adamant about me going to college. My biggest fear is time and debt. I don't plan to take out any loans, and having the job as an aircraft mechanic will help in paying for college, so my biggest fear is time. I'm scared that I won't have time to apply for internships if I'm working/going to school as a mechanic while also going to college, especially since I want to do a bunch of other things on the side, like going to a programming boot camp while also doing self studies online. I want to get all of this done before I hit my late 20's, (19 right now). I'm also not exactly a work-a-holic, coming off as rather average/sub in terms of getting things done. How screwed am I?
Also, is it possible to join the Air Force as an aircraft mechanic apprentice and study for classes in their since it's a sure fire way to pay off any debt?
