I personally know two holders of Masters degrees who are by turns, unemployed... or working as a waiter in chicago to supplement what they're already doing! Just heard that from a relative tonight!... if thats me, mother**** chicago, i'll go where i dont have to work 80 hours a week to live.
Has a masters, now waits tables to go with his teaching job... dumbest shit i've ever heard of... GET. OUT. OF. DODGE.
Thanks, Obama!

I know friends with Master's degrees who aren't using them either because of the "over-qualified" tag for the line of work they want to do. Paying student loans making $10/hour. If you get a Master's it should be in something that is required for you to work in that field. Physical Therapy, Occupational Therapy and Speech Therapy all require Master's/Doctorates just to practice. Everyone has this much education just to have a job, so the playing field is level for everyone as far as education goes. Just an example but you get the point.
