Got to give that a +1.
Not everyone mind but I think those that do feel this way are probably a bit pi**ed off following the general culture that they were brought up in............like Biscuit says you were basically told you wouldn't amount to s*@t if you didn't have a degree......if you couldn't get a degree then you MUST get an office job otherwise you wouldn't amount to s*@t.
That was the general message I got from my family who were all Blue collar workers.
So here I am.........stuck at a frigging desk 11 years later, in a bullshit industry, miserable as sin, day dreaming about one day being in a working life that doesn't so closely resemble hell.
