Doesn’t require a college degree. May require trade school or an apprenticeship.
math teachers
Requires multiple degrees but they are extremely underpaid and while I do think the US could use more and better teachers, the funding of the public school system does not reflect that.
chemists
Probably ok prospects right now but the job market in general kinda sucks right now so you still might have trouble.
etc etc etc.
Computer science was an extremely desirable degree from an employment perspective up until a couple years ago, but now the computer science bubble is popping. But also in general the job market is awful right now. A lot of people I know with “practical” degrees like computer science, business, physics, and engineering are struggling to get jobs in the fields they majored in. And that’s not even getting into how awful the US system for becoming a doctor is…
It’s more of an anti-bubble where companies are keeping salaries down in an unsustainable way. Software development still has at least a decade of good salaries to go.
Cool story. Which degree?
Surely you didn’t spend all that money on some degree that is unemployable, would you?
Meanwhile everyone are begging for electricians, plumbers, math teachers, chemists etc etc etc.

It’s not the first time this happened.
No shit sherlock. That’s the point. They are, however, employable, with pretty good pay.
Mine was cheap as hell for pharmacology/biochem at one of the best universities in Mexico. Maybe this is meant for non-USians?
The meme is definitely by americans, for americans.
