Today, I read an article about the top 10 worst jobs this year. This list includes my degree and three of my main skills and interests. FML

70% off something you didn't need, a stampede and a cart that crashes at checkout. Thanks, Black Friday.
Today, I got frustrated looking for jobs and decided to take a quiz on best-fitting careers. My results speak for themselves. FML
Today, I found out that the money I spent on a very specific degree was wasted, because apparently, I don't qualify for a job at the place that told me I had to have that degree. FML
Today, my job application got denied once again. I looked over it, and saw that my roommate added "screwing over customers" and "hiding dead bodies" under my skills. FML
Today, it's six months until I graduate and I don't have a single skill that can get me placed in any company, but worst part is that I don't even want to work to acquire any skill. I'm fucking useless. FML
Today, I received a series of rejection letters from jobs, one after the other. Last night, I stayed up into the wee morning hours to apply to campus jobs I'm not qualified for, because I was classified as a part-time student due to an administrative error. FML
Today, as it has done in the last couple of years, my dream job has only been accepting applications from students continuing their degree in the fall. Literally, people with half degrees can get what I can't get with a full degree and experience. FML
Today, while updating my résumé, I noticed that in my list of achievements it said "Torturing middle school students". I meant "tutoring", but I guess this explains why I'm still unemployed a year after I started looking for a job. FML
Today, I learned that "unskilled labor" does not mean people who are bad at their jobs. I’m 22. FML
Today, I'm at the unique point in my schooling that I'm either extremely overqualified or extremely underqualified for every job opportunity that appeals to me. FML
Today, I realized I had misspelled "Education" on all the resumes I've been submitting. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

Don't let that article dictate your life. Stay positive. They're YOUR interests and you shouldn't regret them.

you have a degree.. some places look for a degree just to see you have commitment

They may be the worst jobs for some people but it's the best job for you. Maybe you can get in easier since other people won't want jobs in your field.

If you get to do something that you truly enjoy for a living consider yourself lucky. Whatever that article said is only someone's opinion. So what if yours is different? Follow your heart and do what you love :)

If you're doing something you love don't listen to others it's your life

As long as you do what you love, you'll never work a day in your life. Do what makes you happy.

What better way for the people that do these jobs to actually enjoy them. Keep at it.
