I have a Bachelors of Science in Environmental Chemistry (minor in Earth Science) from the University of Michigan.

I'm currently an inventory manager for CompUSA. Smile

As you can see from the other thread, it doesn't pay extremely well. Not a big problem in itself, but then there's often alot of travel, weird hours, etc. Stuff I didn't mind when I was 20, but I'm too old to play with my schedule like that. Wink

Majored History, minored in philosophy, now I work at a bank =p The only good thing from college is the diploma. All people ask me is what school did I go to not what my major was. Once you get into MBAs then it starts to matter what you are doing your MBA in.

I go to the school of "Dunn is a f****t that loves the c**k."


We learn all about how to understand the nature of the Dunn and why he likes to suck so much fat c**k.


Last week we learned about how human semen stores all the nutrients that Dunn's need to survive. Supplimented with a proper diet, a nice big fresh load of Jizz is just what Dunn needs to grow and be fruitful.


Interesting stuff..

BS in Psychology
MS Ed in Counseling
Working on an MS Ed in Clinical and Developmental Counseling atm

Working as an English and MS Office/Computer tutor at a community college. Why? Because the great State of Arkansas says I need a teaching license to be a school counselor. f**k that. Working on the second MS to get my Professional Counselor's license so I can work anywhere but a school.

However, I am applying for a f/t faculty position, teaching intro to psych, abnormal, and developmental...pays slightly more than I am making now, but it has benefits Smile

I may stop taking the graduate courses for now. Licensure requires THREE years, full-time, under supervision before license can be conferred. That would be at approximately HALF of what I am making now, and I simply can't afford that cut in pay!

Majored in Vocal Music Education first, then switched to Computer Science w/ an emphasis on Networking Technologies. Never finished college though, because it was to hard to work fulltime (60+hours a week as a manager for Wal-Mart) and go to school.

Now I am a Regional Accounts Director for a company that manges businesses Credit Card Processing accounts. Pays pretty damn well and the hours are pretty damn good.
