What tier is your degree?

[Ham n' Eggs]

what determines Tier here? employablity? income in field?

If it is employability then I'd delete the current god tier and replace it with a bachelors in Finance. If it is chance of ultra income I'd replace god tier with finance and add career choice of investment banker.

unfortunately I did not major in finance

2 shit tier degrees (history and political science). No college debt. Only debt I have is my mortgage (did put 40% down cash - invested the rest). Income is nice and only getting better.
Don't really care about respect, although within my field I am highly respected for my knowledge.

It's fun to say if you don't have a stem degree you wasted your time, but there are a lot of nice careers - and well paying ones - out there for people with liberal arts type degrees.
Hell, my wife doesn't even have a degree and pulls in a very nice wage (she has 15+ years experience as an insurance underwriter).

Woot! Waste of life tier. But I ended up making a career of it anyways despite the odds. Though anyone going into an art degree needs to understand the odds are way stacked against them.

I as well would like my posts to be empty literally as well as figuratively.

Please tell me how this is done.

If you put an image into your post that doesn't load, it'll appear to be empty.

Top tier here. (computer science) I figured that would be more mid tier though.

Is it me, or are there more and more titles where they stick some random ass word in front of "engineer" and make it a position? What is a 'storage engineer'? What are you storing? Is there even such a degree?

I always thought that was funny too. Like what exactly would a storage engineer do once the SAN is setup and working other than maybe maintenance and backups? When I was a sysadmin we did everything from setup/manage the SAN, backups, VM environment, physical servers, the actual software on them, trouble tickets etc... I guess in a very large scale data centre environment I could see it where stuff is split up more. One thing I would have loved when I was a sysadmin is if trouble tickets would have been a separate job. That made it harder to work on projects. Walk ins were even worse.

I don't see a bachelors in pimping... :sneaky:

Hey Squirrel, can you tell me why my phpBB forum says in the Admin control panel that the database is around 7.5MBs, but the downloaded sql file is around 1.5 MBs in size?

Petroleum-transfer Engineer?

Let's see; started in engineering, hated engineering, wanted to teach, so went back and finished a degree in mathematics. Then, since I needed a few more credit hours to be certified to teach physics, master's courses for physics.

So, engineering, mathematics, physics. Which tier is that??

Edit: my minor when I did engineering was computer science - programming back then.

Hmm never noticed that, but it's probably the way that calculation is made. It probably tells the actual size of the DB on the disk, which accounts for indexing and stuff. While the backup is just a raw dump of all the queries needed to generate the DB and data (any index data would be automatically recreated at that time). At least that's my guess.

"I don't know what I'm doing here!!!" tier?

I started in engineering and had to turn to a waste of life degree, but I'm glad I'm doing fine now in IT since my company only required a 4-year degree and that I had relevant experience doing internships and p/t jobs beforehand. I was the worst at skool but had like 5 jobs to speak of before graduating.

Once you're an experienced professional, you don't even put your degree on your resume do you?

And it's funny that in NY, all you need to make 6 figures is be in the city with a business degree and a few years under your belt. Not bad for a shit tier.
