Just wait until they jack up the minimum wage.

The degrees these grundlebums went into debt to get Will be even more worthless

A lot of employer's with these postings have unrealistic expectations. I've seen people require a CPA license for bookkeeping jobs that pay $15/hr. Makes me wonder about the legitimacy of the job.

This is why you do your research before going to grad school. Don’t chase a masters degree without a job in mind

So by that little part you could have a regular degree and make more than 15.

What's the job?

I prefer to hire people with a Master's degree for $12 an hour, but that's not what they're actually worth.

This is the verbiage that gets me:

Think the BWW CEO knows that they’re accepting apps for his/her job?

That looks like a BS job posting. Saw it on the book of faces yesterday. I would like to see the whole listing because the snippet tells me nothing.

For the record, my MBA was a great investment. So what type of Masters plays into it as well.

My favorite is the small business is BFE with an entry level posting for someone with 5+ years of very specific experience

Good luck with that

The job title should be more informative than the salary as to whether grad school is worth it.

Try paying a licensed engineer with a masters $15/hr and see how quickly the laughter comes out.

Don't bash geography. GIS is a highly technical field of study.
