A college degree doesn't mean you should automatically get a job. A college degree is to better prepare you for the workplace. If you truly have a great work ethic and aren't afraid to make some sacrifices, you'll have no problem getting a job. The problem with people today is that they think everything should be given to them. They don't believe they should earn it. College is a choice, not an obligation. There are some careers where you don't have to go to college and some where you have to go for several years. Either way you can't expect someone to give you something you didn't earn. You have to prove your worth through hard work. Simply jumping through hoops and completing coursework to graduate is not hard work. To get ahead in life, you better have a work ethic or some very good connections.
