I have my bachelors, but out of the literally 800 job applications and 6 interviews, only ONE has asked about my college experience.
I now work at a warehouse making overtime, and I can assure you, they couldn't care less about Organizational Psychology or the Diagnostics and Statistics Manual V4.
I know more than a few people who've never went to college yet make the SAME amount as me....one person my age makes $16 an hour without a degree......
College is 100% useless.

Didn't bother volunteering at the animal shelter or local school? Organize an event to clean up a local beach or park? You didn't get an internship that related to your major? How did you make it this far in life with [b]zero [/b]work experience? And now you expect employers to go "yes, let's hire this guy who has literally never had a job before"? Again, the problem isn't higher education, it's your expectations. Are there issues with higher education and the number of people getting degrees they don't need? Yes, but that's a different issue.
