justaguy3492 08/22/17 4:27:31 PM #1:	https://www.facebook.com/TheRealMikeRowe/ Most of what he posts is so condescending and comes off like he "gets it" and you don't. I like some of his ideas, like not pushing everyone to go to college and showing people that trade jobs are fantastic careers, yet he manages to come off like he thinks college educated people don't understand the real world. In his most recent posts (and many others) he points out that college shelters students from different view points and aren't preparing students to face the real world, but he seems to think every campus in America is like Berkeley or that Evergreen college. I went to a simple state school, and while it was largely liberal, it was smack dab in the middle of rural PA and the idea that we were sheltered from other opinions is nonsense. The funniest part is I think if every college in America was like Berkeley it WOULD prep you for the real world; everyone nitpicking every little thing you say or do, that's pretty much the definition of the modern day work place. --- Gt: justaguy3492 <cite>justaguy3492 posted [p:885253534] in Mike Rowe ...
