I'm pretty sure I'm going to end up doing something like this with my new shiny Bachelor's degree, too.

Being unemployed would be better! You got one of those useless degrees didn't you??? Unless college was free and you can now pursue you real dreams (hot dog vendor?) you are an idiot!

#76, to conduct research in liberal arts fields (yes, people working in liberal arts conduct research!) you also need training and the expertise of professionals. most liberal arts programs are more than memorizing names, dates, and so on. they teach you how to analyze and put together well supported arguments. even if you don't further pursue english, history, art history, etc., you gain important life skills that will help you in almost any career! and, the last time i checked, there are also tons of fellowships, research/teaching assistantships, and other sources of funding for non-science/engineering grad programs.

To all the people calling fake and putting OP down, HAVE YOU LOOKED AT THE WORLD ECONOMY RECENTLY? THE US ECONOMY? Thanks to Bush and his cohorts, many graduates are and will be in OP's position. I'm hoping to graduate at the end of this year with a Marketing AND Accounting dual degree. I'm a substitute teacher in my spare time and I can't find a steady job because there are more experienced people willing to do the "menial" jobs like cashier for less. I had three internships lined up to start in May till December but had to decline because they were UNPAID! As the saying goes "it's the economy,stupid" and until it levels off, OP and so many others will be in a similar predicament. To OP, sorry but this isn't an FML. YOU HAVE A JOB TO PAY BILLS. That should count more than anything. If you're also under the impression that going to a prestigious school means you have job offers coming at you from all angles, well m'dear, welcome to the REAL world! It doesn't happen like that. I know doctors who can't get work in this economy so believe me you have it better than most
