Hi Tom,
This isn't about you...here's a general question about "college" education...
Why do so many jobs require a college education? Such as being a librarian? What do they do that a high school graduate wouldn't be capable of doing?
Why do we need to spend years in college and pay back a big student loan just to get a job that only requires computer work, pushing papers around, talking on the phone, and spinning around in a chair eating donuts?
Then when we ask the college educated people who have those jobs..."What part of your job REALLY requires the college education?" They get all annoyed, of course!
"What part of your job CAN'T be done by someone with say...a 9th grade education?"
Ask them that, watch them get mad.
"What part of your job was worth years in college and a big student loan?"
The donut-eating or the chair-spinning?
