Eventually some baby boomer will keel over dead and you'll get yourself an entry-level position in government, industry, or finance.

Being no-an-idiot you will want to advance and make more moneys. Your employer will point out that the next rung of the ladder requires a 4 year degree. So you will spend the next 6 1/2 years trying to churn out a bachelors while working full time plus. During this stressful time in your life you will find yourself working for an underwater-basket-weaving major that gets twice as much as you simply because he has a degree.

or you can go to school now while you're not doing anything because there's no jerbs anyways. Up to you.

College is nothing more than a place where wealthy suburban white liberals go to have sex with the all black football team while earning a 4 year degree to end up working in an HR office at Home Depot.

And also the loans make Mr Shekelstein rich.

When the jobs do eventually come, it should enable you to do a better one.

Meanwhile, seeing as there's no jobs, have you got anything better to do?

In my experience it is definitely worthwhile still. So long as you pick an actual major and not some fee fee bullshit. I was a major fuck up, arguably still am, but going back to school for engineering opened doors for me I thought I had slammed close years ago. 9/10 would do again

Yea and? Should we just assume our final 4chan form and all become NEET? Waiting for all the jobs to disappear is like waiting for oil to dry up, sure it's eventually going to happen but the game still has a ways to go
