The older I get the more I realize how
useless school was past a certain point. I was a smart kid and peaked
at 10. After that it was nothing but a series of nonsensical events
that culminated with where I am now. Every year something will happen
and I'll ask myself or a friend “Why didn't they teach this in
school?!”
Did you learn how to do yours in
school? I didn't! If you did then that is awesome. But I did not. It
was never even brought up. You'd think that since taxes are something
that you do every year (unless you like paying fines) that your
teachers would stress its importance and teach it. Its not like taxes
are optional. College is optional. Hell, even work is optional. But
taxes are not and it is silly that I was never taught how to do this
from the age of 5 to 18 where five days a week for eight hours a day
I was sitting in uncomfortable chairs being paid by people that hated
their jobs.
