    Target is better than Wal Mart

    Unless you geta degree in something w/ actual practical applications (like engineering, geology, nursing) then the hunt for a job becomes less about a degree and more about the person, how they market themselves, where they are apllying and the local job market.

    His degree is not useless.

    my father has a BA in history and his occupation is selling multi million dollar jets and troubleshooting other military jets; he essentially has free reign to do whatever he wants with one of those aircraft including sell it to foreign governments and retrofit it in numerous ways. He deals with hundreds of millions of dollars of military money.
