You'd be the President, most powerful man in the world (arguably)! You could definitely pull some strings and make the buerocratic puppets dance :lol:

Looks like it'll be returning to normality once we figure out what normality is :lol:

If I weren't already pretty established in my IT career, I'd probably have changed my major after I had Intro to Psychology class last summer...

It's really interesting, and now that I'm in grad school I get to apply things much more, which is loads of fun.
But you wouldn't want to go changing it, especially since there are more than enough in the world, and it's only semi-useful with only a bachelors.

Not that having a degree at all is going to be overly useful, considering I'm already working where I plan to retire from ;)

lol: you're just a lifelong student, huh? I'll probably be one of those people that continue taking classes even after I have a career, because I get so restless if I'm not learning something.
Do you at least get a raise if you get a degree? I know some companies do that.

The IT industry kinda requires continuous learning, even if it's not via formal education. I don't think I'll get a raise once I get the degree, but who knows? It's fun, regardless :)

:lol: My step-dad did TV repair way back in the day, so I was practically born with a soldering iron in my hands. When personal computers came along, it was a natural extension of things I was already interested in :)
