Ok, so here I sit with this expensive little peice of paper that says I know a little about some field of study. Nearly every job I've seen wants 2+ years experience, or a specialized field of expertise. My wife has a degree in an unrelated field and she was up against the same wall. It doesn't seem to matter what your grades in school were (we both made high marks) they're just not willing to take a chance.

Can someone tell me what good is going to school if no one even looks at it other than to see what your attendance was? Not even temp agencies will give me any serious thought; the only thing I seem to qualify for is help desk, which I've done for 9 years now with lots of praise from my co-workers. Maybe I need to go back to school for something else; the IT field definately doesn't seem to have much to offer.
