Gee, sure are a lot of liberal arts degrees in there, including
Journalism and English Lit!

Probably some kind of knuckle dragger's sour grapes. Reread and note
the "experienced" unemployment rate for most of those jobs.

It's a very well researched fact that liberal arts majors don't make the
kind of money that technical and physical science type majors do.

Why does that make them "useless?"

Would you like fries with that?

Well, apparently that high school diploma taught you suggestive
selling. Congrats.


It also taught me the value of a good work ethic, which has resulted in
a very good standard of living.


A very good work ethic that taught you to belittle people that work at
McDonald. Last time I checked, that was an honest living. Great
accomplishment.


You need to do some research before you start spouting off asshole. I
worked at McDonald's my junior year of high school. Opening on weekends
and working 3 evenings a week. Not a bad pay check for a high school kid
flipping burgers. During my senior year I was in a co-op program, school
half a day and working as a GS-1 at the USDA in Washington DC (14th &
Independence), 4 hours a day, 5 days a week. I was bored on the weekends
because my buddies were working at McDonald's on Saturday and Sunday
mornings. So, I started working on Saturday and Sunday mornings.

Prior to this I had a paper route for 3 years and the year before that I
had a donut route, Krispy-Kreme donuts door to door.

Not everybody is so narrow as to judge quality of life by the size of
the paycheck. However, if that floats your boat, have at it.


Narrow? I figured out early in life what hard work would get you and I
managed to get mine.

Romney would love you, let the little people eat cake.


I started out as a little people and worked my way into being able to
eat cake.
