What did you major in, and what is your job now?

  • 🐕 I am attempting to get the site runnning as fast as possible. If you are experiencing slow page load times, please report it.
I was always a little introvertive on my own wave, I could not argue, and I often avoided conflicts, considering it a waste of time. Therefore, having discovered creativity, and in particular wood carving, I got exactly what I was missing. Nobody here will tell you that "this is wrong." Here I have complete freedom of action, and I do not depend on anyone. Now i make for living selling at Ebay & Etsy

Major: HVAC
Job: Wal-Mart employee
Long story short company went under and no one is hiring in my area for techs anymore and to be honest I make 3$ more at Wal Mart right now. But probably looking to switch my career while I have access to free college through Wal-Mart, maybe cybersecurity or computer degree.

Music Theory (transferred to Computer Science)
Senior Software Developer who dabbles with music and writing when he can.
 
major: english, almost done with an MA in English lit.
Job: TAing Composition classes.

kinda aiming at Law but uh man I have no idea as to what other careers I can even do with this and it keeps me up at night. doesn't help that law is fucking over saturated, even if I wanted to do immigration and specialize in dealing with my ties to a certain third world south asian country that I got dragged to for the better part of the 2010s.

mfw parents dragged me to a third world country and I got screwed and basically came back to America with them, with a proverbial gun to my head to finish my undergrad in English and do what I'm doing now.

part of me really wishes I could change to something else like a Computer related one (lmao, I haven't done math since High School) but I'm just too demoralized and tired to swap out. i do enjoy teaching writing and even literature, but I'm just so internally tired. i'd really just like a job that lets me pay off this student debt I've accrued here. It sucks because my high school grades, disability, and ethnicity would have put me in the sweet spot for a ton of scholarships if I had graduated in America.

Ive read some unbelievable shit here and there, but I just dont believe this forum is frequented by a defrocked priest who calls himself Dildo. I cant, and I wont.
Dildo said:
In reality? Nobody has called me father for just shy of six years. That said Catholics are still required to believe as a matter of faith that men like me are still able to turn bread and wine into the body and blood of Jesus Christ and that I can direct the supernatural forces capable of absolving sins. That said I've not said those particular magic words since leaving.

The actual education was not as memorable as the four years chasing skirts, but the degree I earned got me into a great racket that only got cushier under covid. All gravy except for the SJW infestation inherent to the industry.
 
BA/MA in English lit/creative writing

I work in data management.

Don't particularly regret my fields of study, as I was one of the few there who actually loved literature (real literature, not postmodern novels about menstruation and trannies,) and I got a hell of a lot out of it, met some accomplished men, and learned an immense amount about writing.

That said, zero employment opportunities that aren't saturated with insane lefties.
 
Associates in electronics, computer repair. Going back to school for coding, maybe front end development, I'm still trying to decide.

I'm currently just working in retail as it's close by and allows me free time to focus on other things in life.
