[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Only about 11% of Americans have graduate degrees.  The most popular is in education, which skews towards women.  [/quote]

Only in DC are all these useless non technical, non law and non medical graduate degrees employable[/quote]

This is soooo true...and it is what cracks me up about these "requirements".  I'm in tech, have a B.S. and well out earn a bunch of graduate degree friends...PhD in education, MPA (that's a local fav from the George Mason Degree Mill), so so many ticket-punchers around here.[/quote]

yeah but a B.S. in tech won't become treasury secretary like a M.A. from SAIS.

these bitches don't look for just any old grad degree holders. [/quote]

Yes, but of the tens of thousands of MA graduates from SAIS over a given 30 year period, a couple  100 of them will achieve something significant like treasury secretary, ambassador, etc.  Dream on.  However, there are far, far more opportunities heading tech firms in Silly Valley, Boston, the DC Federal contracting market, major consulting firms, web companies, software companies, hardware companies, etc for someone with a background in tech.  The odds of accomplishing a lot with that MA from SAIS are much lower than the odds of achieving something significant with a BS in tech.

Go ahead and imagine you are in the 0.01% who achieve a lot on your MA from SAIS.[/quote]

I'm pp who made the comment to b.s. physics dude - i agree with him for the most part even though i am a SAIS grad.

I'm just trying to explain what some career-climber women in DC will view things as.

And lets be honest, i have plenty of friends and family in the major tech centers of this country - SV and seattle - and women there complain about the guys working in tech and it is brutal for men dating out there. [/quote]
