Useful college degrees vs. following your dreams

:lmao

I think over half of graduates end up working in fields unrelated to their major. That would kinda bother me. Four years is a long time to pour effort into something to just blow it off afterwards.

I earned my B.S. in Comp Engineering, which I guess is an IT degree on the whole but I work in telecom now as a Network Tech doing data/telephony systems. Not quite IT, but not far off. My first job out of school was in IT and only now do I realize how badly I was treated. Telecom folks are happy to have you whereas IT people think they’re doing you a favor in keeping you around.

Stay the fuck away from IT.
