I've got a creative writing degree. It's from a Welsh ex mining college.
This is not a proper degree, qualifies me for fucking nothing and is absolutely no basis for attempting to lord it over other people.

And yet you're still one of the best ones here.

Yeah, speaking as somebody in possession of one
I'm pretty sure I'd never class a creative writing degree as anything approaching "academic success".

Hey my degree is in the Performing Arts
Possibly the least useful of all degrees, you don't even have to be able to write

I think so.
If you ever read about somebody gassing themselves in a Porsche in their double garage, 4 to 1 says it's a dentist.

One of the girls on my masters course already had a masters degree
In modern poetry. I thought that was probably the biggest waste of academic space ever.

She's training to be a circus gymnast now, 2 masters degrees later. Her parents must be proud.

Doesn't stop my company from wanting to put an entirely fallacious "Engineer" in my job title, though.

My badge says engineer.
I'd say I was more of a technician.

If I was an engineer, my degree wouldn't be a pointless arts course from a third rate poly.

I dropped out 6 months in to a history degree.
I wish I hadn't.

Whereas I wish I hadn't taken the degree I did.
Give it a few years of experience and I might decide to do a sound engineering degree to justify the job title a little.
