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.

The degree either gets you 'overqualified,' which is code for they think your going to jump ship 10 seconds after joining them or 'you need more experience.' The first one is BS, the second one is generally true. Just get your foot in the door somewhere and your degree will pay off in the long term... you will eventually go higher than the colleagues who do not have one.
