My son had a ex-girlfriend who got her bachelors in Social Services. She works in a warehouse because she discovered Social Workers dont make sh!t.
Here in Hollywood, we had a young employee who was more “trained” in graphic design than another 3-year grad from Art Institute. Had ALL Adobe programs mastered to a degree than the other guys in the same dept. The hiring guy didnt say anything why he was hired. During the Christmas party, one of our senior guys asked him which college he graduated from and he said he didn’t. The only thing he said was College of Pirate Bay and Youtube”
What he did was download the bootleg versions off Pirate Bay, watched on youtube how to do graphic design, learned the programs manually and sent in his portfolio.
