School taught me how to do a 9-5 job rather than be a person who wants to start a business.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
From an early age I was told that I was expected to do more than continue to run a small business. Education was important and seen as a way of moving forward.
That's a tough question; I've been acting since I was 10. My dad was an entrepreneur, so I guess something along those lines. I wouldn't want a 9-5 job.

As the years passed, and I was nine, 10, 11 years old, it became obvious I was going to start up a business of some sort.
From an early age I didn't buy into the value systems of working hard in a nine-to-five job. I thought creativity, friendship and loyalty and pushing the boundaries of what was acceptable was much more interesting.
Starting your own business isn't just a job - it's a way of life.
Instead of being a teacher, I got a job with a company called Bain & Co., consulting firm, and they taught me how to build businesses.
I'm lucky not to have a nine-to-five job.
I was raised on, 'You go get a nine-to-five job, earn your pay and work your way up.'
I didn't want to go to college or work in an office or have a nine-to-five job. I knew that quite clearly before I left school.
