[quote=Anonymous]95% of jobs don't require a college education.

Marketing? Sales? Accounts Payable/Receivable? HR? Those types of positions, nah, college doesn't teach you anything you can't learn on the job in a week or so.

Medicine, the law, finance (like a cpa, accountants), teachers... yeah, those should require a degree.

We got to this college loan debt place in the world because society pushed everyone to go to college and then when they graduated, jobs changed so that every position required a degree. Made people feel important! Ooo ahhh.

The facilities operations manager at my work is a college degree required position. Stupid. He makes sure the building is in working order and schedules all maintenance. You don't need a degree for that job and the fact that one is required is a ducking joke.

Same with sales. You're either a salesman or not. You learn by doing it. My college's business degree required us to take Business Golf. If you didn't have your own clubs, which were STRONGLY encouraged (and sold through the university), you could rent them for $40/class (so $80/week). I'm in a csuite and I've yet to do any business dealings on a ducking golf course.    [/quote]
