To Go Back to School or Not

Every time someone goes through a long period of unemployment, someone suggests going back to school.

That was my thought process when I was stuck in a tech support job back in 2013, and applied for my MA.

I got in, finished it, made some connections… then ended up running back to that tech support job about six months after. Then I was stuck in that job for about two years.

I remember interviewing for an admin government position around 2016, and the only question they asked me is “Why do you want this job if you have a MA?”

The interview was nothing but a waste of time and I remember being so upset that the degree I got as a means to make getting a job easier, prevented me from getting one I wanted.

I did my game course. I paid $3000 for it, but it was two months for a passion project. Do I want to pay more for a longer program that may or may not get me somewhere?
