What’s the job “a monkey can do” that you take great issue with? Skilled trades PAY WELL and they are actually quite in demand at this point with everyone and their mother deciding college is the best route.

You specify a degree and that you’re entry level, how much do you feel you’re worth? At 26 you’re fresh out of school and entry level, a FAR cry from someone that went into their field at 20 and now has 6 years of hands on experience and training.
