30 Jobs That Could Be Better Than College

With the stress of finals week ahead of us, I think it is time we looked at other options.

Finals week is upon us. While it seemed so far away before Thanksgiving, it is now closing in on us all. I am afraid for what is to come and if you aren't, congratulations, but maybe you should be. If you are afraid for your GPA at the end of the semester and always considering dropping out, here are thirty other jobs that we should start looking into outside of college.

1. Airplane window tester

2. Stripper

3. Hobo under a bridge

4. Cookie tester

5. Ice cream tester

6. Elephant poo shoveler

7. Basket weaver

8. Cat behavior consultant (put your cat lady talents to use people!)

9. Moonshiner (technically illegal if caught)

10. Statue cleaner

11. Coffin maker

12. Antenna installer

13. Professional griever (turn your emotions into cash.)

14. Mascot

15. Florist

16. Pet food tester

17. Smell tester (just sniff armpits all day, easy enough.)

18. Balloon animal maker

19. Condom tester

20. Bee keeper

21. Snake milker (seems much more difficult than milking a cow though.)

22. Human cannonball

23. Lumberjack

24. Chicken sexer (the struggle of knowing if its a hen or rooster is real you guys.)

25. Golf ball diver

27. Stand in bridesmaid

28. Potato chip inspector (so people never end up with odd shaped potato chips I assume.)

29. Rubber chicken maker

30. Bingo caller

If anything, I hope these jobs inspired you to study and stay in school. If any of these jobs seem better than the stress and anxiety you are having to deal with currently, then go for it. Follow your dreams to be whatever you want to be.

It's a time of love, family, memory-making, and gift-giving. But also a time of stressing over the perfect gift.

It's officially December. There is less than a month of 2024, and I still feel like yesterday was summer. Now comes the merriest time of the year, the Christmas season.

Everyone has been waiting for this time of year since mid-October (which is way too early, in my opinion) or before. It's a time of love, family, memory-making, and gift-giving. A lot of times when I ask friends and family what they want, I get a lot of "I don't know" or "I don't care."

Bucket List To Live In The Now

Find excitement in your life and start exploring wherever you are right here, right now.

mu bucket list

I was sitting at my cubicle, now that I am an adult, looking at the rain pouring down on the windowsill, bumming on life, wishing for the rain to just stop for a full day.

There are moments where we count down the hours until work is over and how many more days till the weekend, and this many weeks until something exciting. Or something like that? Well, I was bumming because my next day off from work is not until Memorial Day weekend, which is not until the end of May. And since this is my first year out of college being a “real person,” I am totally missing the winter, spring and summer breaks. I am sure all of us have felt this way even if just for a hot minute…

Great Value Colleges

If you go to or went to Kent State, then more than likely you have done or will do some of these things.

1. You’ve slipped and fallen on the ice at least once.

The winters at Kent are brutal, and while the heated sidewalks and some great snow boots are always a help, there’s no chance you won’t bust it on the ice at least once in your four plus years at school.
