Has anyone here ever entered a field that had nothing to do with their degree?

I can see how that could work though, law is very diverse. I have a buddy that got his degree in kinesiology and he's in law school right now.

I was a film major, so what do you think?

I see you're still at the ol' job/school search?

Yep lol I have a degree that is hard to find work in (kinesiology). I'm a good writer, and I really enjoy it, so I've been thinking about finding a sports information internship or something like it.

Yes, just last week I walked through a field hiking with my boys and it didn't have a damn thing to do with my degree.
