I ate an edible one time and took an adderal. Im not very social on the pot so I played pool all night and never lost a game. Was in the zone. If I ever found myself in a pool tourney that would be the combo of my ped's

I never heard about 90's dance parties. Guess I'm just not living right.

re: Construction Management redux.....

It is sufficient. We have one guy with an ITT tech degree. You probably won't start at the same salary as a construction management b.s. but it doesn't take long to prove yourself.
I'm sure you've heard it before, get there early, stay later, learn more. Hold off on the masters. I learned more in the first two years of working than I did in my entire time in college.
Once you start climbing within a company and think it will help you to get a masters, most companies will pay for continued education. I know several people that have used this approach to get their mba.
Nothing beats experience

You don't have to go be a day laborer to get in the industry. Don't work for a sub. That will limit your experience to one trade.
Almost every GC in DFW is hiring right now. We just hired 3 kids out of college as field engineers that had business or finance degrees. Give them a tape measure and start making punch list and addressing quality control. They will manage onsite materials, jobsite conditions, enforce the safety program, generate RFIs, daily reports...etc.
They will be assistant superintendents in a year or so. With this approach you get exposure to all trades. That is invaluable experience if your end game is PM. You need to know the details when writing scopes or negotiating change orders and contracts.
You can go swing a hammer or pick up trash for somebody if you want. But I would relocate for better opportunity.

I grew up in the area and got a great scholarship so I went to ULM. Looking back I wish I would have went somewhere else but I would have had a lot of debt. But it's all about what you make it. There isn't a shortage of women.

I really like the prosper/celina/Gunter area being from a small town in Louisiana. I just couldn't deal with DNT to 380 or Preston road every morning and evening.
