I only drive to supplement my studies and I’ve gone back to uni to study psychology.

Don’t for one minute longer think that’s any better.

I also went to uni aged 30 to study psychology, and graduated 4 years later with a 1st class. Yet here I am aged 40 still driving lorries. What happened? I saw and lived the brutal reality for psychology graduates, found higer education is mostly a scam, and realised lorry driving was a LOT less stressful, and better paid. It’s EXTREMELY competitive amongst psychology graduates. However, if you’re prepared to do a masters, and possibly a PhD, THEN work very hard for a decade, you might get £50-60k.

Also, if you hate current culture, with its political correctness, cultural-marxism, omnipresent feminism, and suppression of free specch, don’t go to uni to study psychology, as you’ll be indoctrinated to hate white scientific men.

Did you drive before you studied? I genuinely hate this driving game and this is the only way out. I was in the army and they pay my tuition fee’s, so I’m pretty lucky!

What would you say your largest hurdle was afterwards? i’m actually doing social psychology so it is not too biased and I can somewhat study what I like and i plan to do a masters.

As for all the politics jazz, i think may not see eye to eye on a few things :laughing:

The question should read what makes you, not want to do it not what makes you want to do it
1 if you don’t know anything better
2 if you like working for buttons
3 if you can only work by been lead by the nose
4 if you like working all hours for peanuts
5 if you never question anything
6 if you don’t have a life
7 if you don’t mind working twice the amount of hours for a living wage
8 and finally if you don’t have a mind of your own
I think that puts it in a nutshell

I had a GREAT BIG TONKA TOY ,well an eight legger Volvo tipper to play with on a muddy land fill. It released my inner child. So whats not to like. Pay is reasonable and listen to the radio. Take away driving and I don’t know how else I could earn a living.
