WTF: Co-op is fucking bullshit.

  1. No, co-op is awesome. It gives one real world experience, potentially in your field, and gives the theoretical stuff you cover in school context. Let's not forget the pay, which is often much better than what you would normally get at your age and level of experience (and only a high-school diploma). It gives you a break from school every 4 months. And you may even end up with a solid job by the time you graduate, if not some solid connections with employers. I love Co-op.

    Of course, one major downside is that the alternating streams schedule makes it hard to both make and keep friends.

  2. Do I have to do my work-term reports?
    Is it a big deal if I drop out of co-op now?
    I'm in my 4/5 co-op term but I just hate the reports!
    If I don't do them, I'll still graduate but w/o co-op 'honours' right?
