So I got a degree in American Studies because that’s what I liked to do.
I did like it.
But now, I don’t know what to do!!
I was all over USAJOBS.com, but no luck.
Overall, I was hoping to land a job in Government, or working for some secret shadow agency full of good people.
But now, I wonder if it was all a waste. I mean, I know it wasn’t a waste, because I use the skills just in my basic , every day living. I don’t want to say it makes life easier, but I definitely make better decisions, which seem to make life better.
So all in all, if I had nothing, I do have that degree and knowledge packed in my brain.
Other than that, I don’t know what I”m doing anymore, after 2 years of job searching and resume writing and career counselor advising!!!
I talked with other people who have other degrees, and it’s all the same!!!
The people who seem to do well are females who majored in marketing or nursing or something.
My buddy has an accounting degree, and isn’t even using it! He does a job that I think doesn’t even require a degree.
My other buddy has a Masters in Business. And he’s doing what I did during school and still do to make ends meet when I can. Home Improvements! LIke fixing up old or busted houses and making them sell for high.
Thing is, he’s doing the labor part. He works for a company, but I think his friend owns it, so it’s all good I guess.
His friend also has a degree, I’m not sure in what though, probably business. But he’s just older, and has better connections. That’s why he with his bachelor’s, is my friends boss, who has the masters!
Why, because his friend’s dad owns a business or something. And may not even have a degree, just a real estate license.
But I digress….
