I’m in my mid-40s and I didn’t go to college – I was one of the last generations where you didn’t HAVE HAVE HAVE to have an advanced degree to qualify for something like an admin assistant position.
I truly hope that the younger generations take this as an opportunity to stand up for themselves and stop feeding into the notion that everyone needs advanced degrees. It’s absurd. If no one has a degree, then they can’t demand that people have degrees. Degrees should be for engineers, doctors, people with advanced careers. Past that, it’s simply a money making scheme for colleges and a bullshit bill of goods that they’re selling to people who cant, and shouldn’t have to, pay for it.
