I am having a crisis
>going to community college, prereqs for forestry
>working min wage job in cuckafornia
>in the same day get two job offers for web design by the respective owners of the companies
>boss finds out and has me doing signage for the entire company now that she knows I used to do design for a living
>owner of my company comes in, finds out I speak some japanese, offers to compensate me if I ever help them with expanding into japan
>meeting with owner again to go over the japan gig and improving the company in general
some backstory about the company:
most of the higher ups have no degree/experience, just managed stores for a long ass time. I think the accountant is one of like 3 people with relevant training in their job, the girl doing new product work used to manage a mcdonalds or something
now whether or not I work for this company in the future is irrelevant to this. the main question would be:
Is getting a degree in marketing/business focusing in Japan worth it? I've studied japanese for two years, married to a Japanese citizen, and have the want to become more fluent in it. However, I also know that business/marketing degrees are a dime a dozen and owned by every other starbucks dwelling retard in America.
Would switching majors to this be shooting myself in the foot? I really enjoy marketing work, going over advertising, community events etc. and love the hell out of Japan as well, not a weeaboo though.
What should I do? Advice?

stable employment and living in a place without my parents in the next room
it seems like a stupid question to ask, but is there any demand for business minded people who speak japanese? how easy would it be to get a job with a marketing degree + conversational/business level japanese?
