Someone tell her the economy is doing great.

“I was so upset and disappointed in myself because growing up, I was told that if I get an education, if I go to college, then I’ll be successful,” Santos told Business Insider—and she’s not the first Gen Zer to complain about feeling tricked into pursuing further education.
Just last month, 27-year-old Robbie Scott similarly went viral on TikTok for insisting that Gen Z isn’t any less willing to work than generations before. Instead, he said, they are “getting angry and entitled and whiny” about the prospect of having to work hard for the rest of their adult life, only to “get nothing in return.”
i can imagine the comments section without checking. "she shouldn't have gotten a degree in gender studies and critical race theory then!" "my niece is exactly like this, she got an education and now she thinks the world OWES her a living."
We literally have those types in this thread.
ooh cring
Bingo. Lot of Big Brains claiming people should just major in STEM, since the job market is always hot for them.
And then the people with stem degrees are also not getting jobs
Yep, cscareerquestions is full of doomer posts because the entry-level job market is already saturated
To speak nothing of the engineering job market
That's quite true tough.
It really gets my piss boiling when people use education as a substitution for class analysis. STEM vs. Humanities. College vs. trade school. It's as dumb and reactionary as the big city vs. the "Heartland" crap. In a functional complex society you need people who are good at all sorts of different things. Hate the bougies who are actually stealing from you, not those who went to a different school than you.
can we still make fun of business school dweebs
Sure.
