Myself I got my degree in Computer Repair/Networking, wanted to add Programming but in 99 they dropped the course where I went claiming Programming would be obsolete after they fix the Y2K bug lol. Some stupid community college board decided that.
Anyway teachers claimed we could make as much as 35000 a year but I got a job in sales making over 40000 a year and in 4 years worked up to Management scoring over 60000 a year not including bonuses and a 2wk paid vacation.
Then I crashed my pride and joy a 05 Yamaha V-Star Custom blue with ghost flames..... It was 5 months old 4,500 miles when totaled.
I was young and dumb you know how it goes.
So who else Wasted 2to4 years on a degree only to get a great job in a different field they still could of got without any college at all.
And no I'm dissin College I think it's a great experience just saying young adults think before you choose your classes, research what it pays, go visit a job site and see how you like the real work with the years of dirt and crazy things people do to stuff you might be handling. A degree in Sales could of got me to Managment in a year rather than 4.

Anybody can get a job that has nothing to do with their degree lol. You just need to have initiative and determination.
I think the paper is what you need. The rest of what you need will either come from experience or certification...or both.
