Unironically, yes. If you go straight from undergrad to an MBA program, companies know you're just a book-wanker.
You have to spend 3-4 years stuck in a dead-end analyst role, then you go waste $70,000 on the MBA and then they'll finally let you through the glass ceiling.

Don't trust anyone who goes directly to MBA, they're just unprincipled looters.
The ones you want are the starry eyed optimists who burn out when they hit the real world and hear the call of the grift in their very soul.

I was thinking of getting an MBA about ten years ago after ten years plus in the corporate workforce as a programmer because I could tell that it was the only way a programmer could move into management and coding really fricking sucks after you do it long enough. I never actually followed through with it though and I doubt I ever will now.

really? I see plenty of jobs for those blood, piss and shit testers.
which reminds me of a funny story that happened when I was in high school. I had to give a morning piss sample and they gave me a cup. but they didn't give me the plastic bag and I didn't know it needed one. I also didn't know that you weren't supposed to fill the cup. But oh boy I filled that motherlover and I put the cup in a paper bag and I was driving there to drop it off.
I was really careful while driving to make sure the piss cup didn't tip. I got there and parked the car and I start walking towards the building and I trip and drop the bag.
Turns out the the lid is not spill proof (stupid design for a piss cup) so I handed in a paper bag soaked in piss.

Los Alamos is easy to get into for computer scientists. They're the ones paying for my body pillow purchases. God bless the DoE for making me glow.
But they said "laboratory testing" so it's probably a

National labs aren't bad, I grew up around one and almost everyone from my high school grew up and worked there who stuck around and did engineering.
The problem is if you're doing chem/bio/genetics/etc. and trying to work there, because it's pretty much the only viable place you CAN work in those fields

Imagine how badly you have to interview and how unlikeable you have to be in person to not get a job with any form of degree lmao.

I consider most liberal arts degrees meme, and about 20% of my friends have one. I still donβt think a single person I know is unemployed.

I suspect too many people act like robots in interviews. I did acting and improv when I was in elementary and high school, and it has paid off immensely for meetings and demos. Being able to spitball and improvise is like cheating.
Edit: You just have to be very careful about not improvising technical bullshit b/c someone can easily call you out, lol.

One time someone told me that they felt they were more educated than me because the university they went to had more βprestigeβ than mine, while meanwhile I use my degree and make 3 times what they do. Good job, you have a piece of paper that makes you feel good, get off your high horse.
If I had to guess, this person got their 2 bachelorβs degrees and MBAβs in succession, had no internships in college, so now they are a 32-34 year old with no actual experience.

If someone works in a field unrelated to their degree, immediately realize that their job can be done by any r-slur.

Sometimes yes, but I have seen some cases where the company is super out of date( or is the government) and requires Bachelor's for every position, when it really isn't necessary at all, so you get someone with a Pre-Med degree in an Administrative Assistant position because nursing didn't work out.

It's not that it's necessary or not, it's that there's so many excess degrees they can afford to be that picky.
A McDonalds could put that they want a masters degree just to filter out r-slurs and yeah it's "unnecessary" but they'd still get a dozen applicants to pick from.

Wrong.
Degree doesnβt mean anything and the two years I spent in college before dropping out were the only years of my life that I wasted.
The opposite is true: if the only qualification to do your job is a piece of paper, any drooling r-slur who got handheld through a state college (aka daycare) with a 2.01 gpa can take it from you.
Connections and skills are what matters, in that order. Thatβs the beginning and the end.
