My biggest problem has always been that I find all the career paths that would actually make me money either extremely boring or distasteful, and I really wish I was wired differently.

I had to drop out of CS school because I was getting too much paid work as a developer even in my tiny southern college town. the money was too good and it didn't make sense to keep paying for school at the time. Worked out v. well and now I live in LA making bank building apps for startups

I know you all were ragging on English majors, but my girlfriend is a science writer going for her MA and she's tempted to do exactly this. People keep throwing job offers at her, and apparently her program has a huge dropout rate because students keep getting lured away with high paying jobs

Houston, we're Havana problem.
i mean, in large part, a degree is a class badge that tells people, regardless of major, that "i am a person who is in the middle class" so you can enter into middle class spaces freely and middle class people will be comfortable with you because you can say "oh, i did my undergrad at ____" at some boring dinner party. and, in fact, humanities degrees trend from wealthier families because they know they are going to have a job no matter what so they don't have to find a major that maps to a specific vocation.

i mean, it's cynical, but just get a degree so that rich people will hire you because they think you're from "good stock" or whatever.

do what I did with my tuition reimbursement benefit and take a bunch of random electives that fall under an associates transfer degree, like drawing and classical guitar. It was pretty awesome feeling to have work pay for me to take all 3 levels of the guitar class the school offered

I'm one of the dopes who likes working on the more theory/academic side of computer science and robotics, so my coding skills are a joke and my repositories are a horror show. Good thing I like teaching introductory programming courses and publishing!

But yeah, 9 out of 10 of my colleagues are more on the developer/programmer side of things and constantly wondering why they don't just jet off and do that full time.

Edit: I also got a degree in philosophy and want to say that an Arts degree can definitely help you stand out and give you credibility when presenting yourself as an alternative to the purely technically-minded.

Funny you should ask.

He is... with just one simple precondition.

How cool would it be if Trump converted to Islam. Only Nixon could go to China, only Trump could convert the American Fascist Right to Islam.

Yeah, depression has been a big demotivator my whole life. It's not like a sulking, unpleasant depression-- more like just a general malaise even when I'm pretty happy otherwise.

I enjoy reading and writing about history, as well as painting. I got a degree in the former but didn't pursue it past the BA degree because of the job market. I do the latter occasionally on a commission basis.

i had a friend whose roommate wrote reviews for sex toys professionally. walked into their house one day and there was one of those bouncy balls that you sit on with a dildo sticking out of it. just sitting in the living room. he was weird as poo poo tho, which is probably to be expected.
