Reply to comment by [deleted] in Homelessness charity staff start strike, after low pay risks homelessness by db_2_k

Not really sure why you're touting high school education as a metric. Unless you're like a farmhand or janitor (and even then, I'd expect you to know how to read chemical warnings just in case), I would expect high school education to be like the bare minimum for a more-than-minimum-wage job (edit: accidentally wrote "more than highschool job", lol).

I dunno, quite a lot of people lack proper reading comprehension. That's a skill expected of someone with a high school education.

Fair, I misread it by erroneously inserting a "school" in there.

That said, these days you can get a master's in business, and it's a complete joke. A master's isn't necessarily difficult to get.

I bought an Bachelor of Science in Interdisciplinary Arts in Math, Science and Engineering (that's a mouthful), which was a relatively easy degree. Then I bought a bachelor of science in computer science. This was an actual challenge. But still probably a joke compared to stuff like mechanical engineering or biochemistry. And finally, I bought a master's in business. This was a complete joke. Basically high school level stuff. I don't feel accomplished at all and actually sometimes forget that I have a master's, lol.

Not your fault at all. High education makes sense. I just randomly imagined the school part out of habit, haha.
