It is bothersome that a college degree is more important than demonstrable skills.

"You're so smart! Where'd you go to college?"
"I didn't."

As if the only way to learn was to pay someone to read to you 🤣

Idk I just don't think it's as bad as it used to be like 5 years ago. People are starting to give less shits about it, as long as the job gets done. But that's just my two cents.

You could have majored in expressive dance. The remaining 99.8% had no arbitrary degree requirement. So if I've ever seen the requirement, I just laugh, tell them good luck staffing it, and move on to employers who are serious.
