I Love College

In the time that I have been away from my pretty little blog my life has been in a tumult. I'quit' school, got a full-time jobbie-job slinging cell phones at technology spoiled, broke, whiny motherfuckers.

By the grace of God, I rediscovered my brain and quit before I either jumped off a building or started chucking Smart Phones at the constant stream of douche bags that strolled in demanding that I kiss their ass in the hopes of convincing them to activate service with the company.

Now I am back at school, full time, in the hopes that I can cash out with my degree- finally.

Here is the dilemma. Hell if I know what I'm going to do with my degree. I don't buy into the hype that a degree is a golden ticket that will get me passed Willy Wonka's Gate and into the damned Chocolate Factory. Nope, my guess is that very soon after forking over thousands of my hard earned green backs, I will be back at some thankless jobbie-job and pray that I don't have to 'service' those assholes who live to treat others like shit because they are paying for some kind of service/clothing item/food/beverage.

I have come to know many people that have purchased their 'Golden Ticket' from universities around the country and very few were able to transition that purchase of a 'priceless' piece of paper to an actual worthwhile, honest to goodness career that makes them so happy they shit sunshine and daisies on a daily basis. Most I know go to Grad school for lack of anything better to do, or lack of opportunity in their field without a Masters or Doctorate.

So it seems my friends, that what was once a ticket to taste the mythical 'high life' is now nothing more than the equivalent of a high school diploma. I'm all for educating the masses, don't get me wrong, smart people are less ignorant people; however when a college degree becomes as worthless as the piece of paper that you wipe your ass on after you take a... well you know what I mean... then I start to wonder what the point of it all is.

Is this cynical? I doubt it. Is this realistic? Unfortunately. I doubt most people enjoy where they are career wise, so perhaps I should just buck up and get over the fact that my time is being spent on a seemingly never-ending, reward lacking endeavor?

Well I suppose the best course of action would be to soldier on, and muck through the bullshit hoops that academia sets so that peons like myself can call themselves 'college educated'.

Yay!
