I got my degree eight years ago and still haven't been able to use it. Every job opening that claims to be entry level actually wants five years of experience in something that came out two years ago.

    Just say you have five. Clearly no one's checking.

    If you do, use the Circuit City/Toys R Us trick. Pick an out of business company for your CV so they can’t check references.

    As someone who actually worked at a radio shack towards the end, but got fired cause I'm not big into backing down and one of the old heads didn't like me cause I moved fast. Not a physical fight, just a verbal confrontation.

    Like John, my brother in Christ. You weren't getting commissions for like a year before I even started!

    But I kept the name tag for poops and laughs.

    if they had just pursued a degree in pet play instead of whatever they majored in, they wouldn't have anything to complain about.

    I am once again reminded I am unable to see a picture of mac and cheese and not prepare it for myself immediately. Thank you.

    Not gunna lie. Cheap ass Mac and cheese with some actual butter(assuming you have that much) is like way up there in the on the "ACCEPTABLE" chart for me. I sometimes throw in a can of Rotel and/or some cheap chorizo for a little taste of home.

    Does it matter? The US graduated over 2 million people with bachelor’s degrees in spring of 2025. How are all those people supposed to find jobs?

    Yes, why wouldn't it matter? Do you think economies maintain demand for every conceivable degree equally, year after year?

    My implied claim here is that there are more people graduating with degrees in every major than the economy can fill jobs for in any of them. Youth unemployment is rising! Trying to find a job is really difficult and even degrees once thought “safe” (such as CS) have stingy employers who think AI will replace the need for training fresh graduates.

    You might think “oh that’s fine, people who studied other subjects won’t care about CS people.” But if those CS grads can’t get CS jobs they’ll look for other jobs, increasing competition in other fields. This can have a domino effect throughout the youth job market.

    At uni I ended up microwaving tinned macaroni cheese on white sliced bread in my room as a snack. I’d never do that now as it’s double carbs and gross, but what was going on back then?
