I am working class, self educated, grew up poor but worked hard since my 14th year learning the trades to attain blue collar middle class status until those many years of hard work disabled me, returning me to my newly re impoverished status. (Out of vanity I am older and grayer than I appear in the rear view mirror) Because I am self educated I am prone to spelling and grammar errors, so please don’t hold it against me, rather PM me with the proper form in order to help me learn, remember, I never quite finished tenth grade and took it upon myself to self-educate. This experiment has left me knowing many things not often taught in universities, but also unfortunately leaves me ignorant of some education you may find common. It is a mixed bag of ignorance and expertise unique to myself, but it works for me, and I am still “at school” as far as I am concerned and always will be. Only part time And with no degrees to hang on the wall.
