I guess it depends where you live but in Alberta that is certainly not true , there are always lots of rig, pipeline, crew trucks etc jobs looking for young grunts over the summer months where a young student could load up on cash, they just have to be willing to do it.

As for experience or education , it for sure depends on the line of work but for the average job I'd say experience would count for more although you can plateau to a certain level....with that said many companies will pay for your education if they want you to get a certain degree to move up, if they like your work.
