Fucking terrifying.
I tried to, I got jobs but the fact that I had a degree seemed inconsequential. I'm a programmer now, but I went to community college for it after I finished uni. They don't give a fuck about my English degree.

You need a certification to teach overseas but not a degree.

Yes, I've made a career of using shady loans to keep getting useless English degrees ad infinitum. (It's not like you can do anything else with an English degree.)

>teaching English in China or some shit, or even just using it to get a job somewhere, like at a news paper
Obviously people can do that, but for those jobs there's nothing special about having a literature degree.
