Guest guest Posted April 23, 2008 Report Share Posted April 23, 2008 Very well stated, Mr. Elbert!

Maybe it takes 1,500 hours to complete " barber " training but should it? Or 2,500 hours for mortuary school? Hair stylists and funeral directors may say it's excessive or unnecessary. Many schools of every sort may spend huge percentages of their " hours " not accomplishing much of anything. I've known reputable college instructors who can kill time with the best of 'em. > > > >Often it appears we're in a system of " put in more hours - have more stature and get paid more " ? Rather than more of a system of competency measurement.
