> [@boardjnky4](#): > > this might work for you to get a job. lets face it though, you got lucky. If you lose that job, will you be able to get another? Sure you have experience, but MANY companies require that piece of paper that says you are a graduate. Not saying you won’t find a job, but it will not be easy and you will have to rely on favors to come back around. I am not bitter about anyone that doesn’t graduate and still gets as far(or further) than I do. I just see things in a more concrete way. Getting my degree will allow me to get my foot in the door to a lot places. Don’t forget, I can do plenty of networking as well. I currently have a VP of a company and leader of a large networking organization searching for a job for me when I graduate. People who have the will to succeed, always will. I have put in my hard work, and am very confident that it will pay off in the end. Without a degree though, it will always be more and more of a grind to find that right job. The job I have now had a listing that “required” a degree. The job I had before I got promoted had a listing that “required” a degree. The 5 calls a week I get average asking me to move to a different company also tend to lead me to believe that I will have no issues finding a job if I lost mine. Why did I get my job? I have more experience than the other guy, and they knew someone who knows me who vouched for me. PS. I have a couple billionares writing me recommendation letters. Now, just wait for my next post before you reply… --- _[View the full topic](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/how-many-people-on-nyspeed/46330)._
