Semi-related to B2: If you went to a higher-level educational facility...are you earning a living doing what your main focus of study was?

Me: Nope. I didn't take any computer or procurement classes in college other than Computers 101 and I'm likely a DBA / procurement person.

I majored in Poli.Sci.
