College, the 8+ year long battle, Part I

Since graduating high school in '01, I've been taking various college courses at the urgings of my mom.
She has friends and other relatives that have kids who already got their so-called, "education" done and completed.
At the same time though, I've completed less units of various coursework as opposed to those I actually attempted.
At this point and "low-stage" of my life, I am once again being pushed into going down this road once more on the false incentive that I'll be satisfying myself.
If anything, only those who aren't myself will be feeling any sense of accomplishment out of such a task, while I'm only going to be stuck with poor health and a mountain of debt if I adhere to the fashion in which they want me to get it done.

One of the main reasons I've put the seeking of blue-collar work ahead of getting into the atypical approach of getting into a four-year university is due to the proverbial, "excess baggage" that is sure to come with it.
Yes, getting a degree might increase the earning potential, but also open the floodgates to future leadership and management responsibilities.
The way I see it, you either have "born leaders" who have been able to organize individuals from the time they began to walk, or persons with a certain amount of military training.
Since I never had either of those things happen to me, I would much rather stick to my established comfort zone to prevent the outcome of a future, professional mistake that could mar me worse than any trucking accident I've been in.

So, as I prepare to go back to the local college and see about getting my name removed from the "progress probation" list, I'm going to take a nice long look at programs that will have an even mixture of professionalism and anonymity.
If I'm to invest a little time and money into a path to get me away from home once more, I want to go in knowing that I will be able to accomplish this new set of tasks without having to worry about sleepless nights ahead.

Essentially, my main goal in life has been there all along.
Go to work, finish work, come home and forget about what I did at work.
Last thing I need to be hearing when I get home is, "Adam, we need to fix this scheduling arra.....click"
