Sometimes I think my major was a joke. I've been turned down for job after job after job. After I graduated from CSU in May 2007 I applied for all the social work jobs I could find, and I interviewed for all that contacted me. Not one came through, and I ended up working at a bakery and coffee shop, serving wine and cheese to rich people.

One time an older guy came into the bakery and asked me if I was going to school, etc. I said I graduated with a social work degree. "Then what are you doing here?" People don't understand.

What makes the people who do get hired so much better than me?

it seems that without a masters in SW you can't get hired for much these days :/ I feel you, my Fine Arts degree landed me a job at starbucks, and a couple of restaurants...I have higher hopes for nursing :)
