Biden Bails Out Losers With Worthless College Degrees

[robayon]

Anyways it’s nice to see people at different points on the political spectrum agreeing that most college degrees are a scam

I have an nearly free associate’s degree and I compete for jobs with people who have master’s degrees and 100k in student debt, and my associate’s degree is unrelated to the field I work in (until recent events but they’re still holding my job for me for the time being)

Keeps the kitchen spotless, manga enthusiast.

Cleaned it before we left this morning, and you have a BattleTech book in your signature on an EverQuest forum

These are all jobs I’ve seen in behavioral health that can EASILY be done without it a college degree:

- You could be doing what’s called “intakes” which is getting never ending assembly lines of people signed up at a clinic. It’s just asking them 2 hours worth of questions and entering the information into the network. Then linking them up with services, that’s it. If they freak out on you or act psychotic, you call in other help

- You could be a case manager, which involves having a caseload of people you check up on to make sure their services are meeting their needs and offering other resources which are easy to learn (housing, SNAP, substance abuse programs, etc)

- you could work at a group home or substance abuse clinic directly with residents there. Maybe giving medications, maybe facilitating a group (this is not considered counseling)

- you could be a peer support, helping either kids or adults by taking them out in the community and doing stuff with them

- you could work at a behavioral health hospital in literally ANY position other than the top administration or doing outpatient counseling, which would require a license

- And this is just off the top of my head when I’m tired in the morning

- all of these jobs would start paying around $35k+ a year

ALL of these positions ask for a degree and yet ALL of them will either train you or you will learn as you go. The alternative? Many of them will accept you if you have no degree but “2 year experience in the field”. How do you get that experience without the degree? Beats me!

Does being in rehab count as experience? Asking for a friend

White house tweets about how it gave child rapist nazis 100 million dollars from the fed and that's supposed to make people feel good about 10k off 80k loans?

None of that is manga, but nothing really matters and its all silly.

I absolutely agree they committed mass genocide across the east. I literally put that into my post. I’ve been to Korea and seen and heard stories about what they did there and I would never even begin to defend it. That’s not the point I was trying to make though.

I’m just simply giving my observations about the US’s current situation in Japan. You said we’re there to protect them, I said it’s not that simple.

I said we exploit the fact they allow us to be there. Different to exploiting the peoples themselves. The US (and pretty much every major government) has a habit of taking a mile when offered and inch. Our current position in Japan is no different.

The amount of service members stationed, the number and sizes of bases, the type of maintenance and work that is allowed to be carried out. All of these things are being constantly pushed and expanded, with promises that “this is the last time” being constantly broken.

This is the US military we’re talking about here. Does any of this actually surprise you?

Fair enough

My son makes $250k as a CRNA. I thought he was a moron for becoming a nurse, but he had his bachelor’s done by 20 and grad school done by 30

I’d do that, comp sci, or engineering if I were 18. Back in the day I did engineering with the hopes of going to med school but I’m dumb and got a girl pregnant so just a lowly electrical engineer

Medical is always going to demand the degree for their own liability but even EE or IT stuff, with how much information is freely out there on the internet, I could see those jobs being done by someone who is self-taught

One of my parent’s friends when I was growing up was making 6 figures doing computer repair (hardware and software), never went to a day of college, all self-taught
