      It's very hard on them, especially if they have a hard time learning another language. My spouse would definitely struggle with that, especially to be able to do a career in a foreign language and relearn all the work terminology in order to communicate with coworkers, etc.

      A proper deep dive would teach you about ancient comparative systems of astrology from the Egyptians, Chinese, Maya; what kinds of rituals and tires they scheduled around those predictions; the relative waxing and waning in political power of the court astrologists; what other scientific discoveries those people made, etc.

    The nice thing about college is that it also offers independent studies, so you can bounce around majors until you find something you like.
    Always start looking into majors and potential jobs while you're young! Volunteering at local places can really help put things into perspective that taking classes definitely won't!

      @@rennoc6478 very true! I was commenting about the volunteering bit before. Very good point about bouncing majors being expensive.
      Studies show that the people who wait a year between high school and college are significantly more successful in college and bounce significantly less. Part of that has to do with brain development and the decision making function dramatically changing at the age of 20. Part of it is that people have time to think and explore the world, to gain experience. Usually doing paid work, internships or volunteering. A far less expensive route for self discovery!

Unless you actually have a field in mind and are working on clearing the qualifications for it, it's going to be more about making friends, getting in good with professors, trying every internship/externship you can, and visiting career services a lot.

    As an English: Creative Writing major, I can say that there actually are a lot of jobs we can do. Everything you've ever seen written, or anything that's ever been scripted? That's a job. Someone was paid to write that. There's a lot of jobs in editing, publishing, being an agent, working in bookstores, alternative education programs, journalism, proofreading, marketing/copywriting, scriptwriting and production, ghostwriting, professional/technical writing, and other things. And a lot of jobs not directly related to us but require just any bachelor's degree love having an English major around because it's nice having someone who can write/read/storytell well. It helps a LOT in sales jobs!
    It's just that most students are not remotely motivated or care enough to do any of the jobs we can do.
    So they end up working at grocery stores.
    Luckily, I do not have that problem and am already working as an editor, reporter, and starting my own literary journal.
    I am a published writer on top of it, but that's just for fun, as most people don't realize that getting published really doesn't pay much (if anything) and unless you're a commercial writer who becomes a brand like Stephen King or James Patterson, you will never make a living just writing creatively (or having people write under your name, which happens with a lot of those big authors, though they do still participate in the creation of the stories in many ways). And becoming one of those people is virtually impossible. I know very successful writers who have been bestsellers and won prestigious awards. They usually have several day jobs, often in higher education.

    • @Sjp374

      Fellow English major here, too. I worked for almost a decade as an editor and writer, pretty much right out of college. The jobs are out there (well, unless AI destroys them). But you have to pick your major with an intentional plan, not just say, “Oh, I like English!” and expect that to be enough. This is true with all the liberal arts degrees that aren’t a certification for a specific profession but more of an academic area of study. Even biology majors have a hard time finding a job if they didn’t plan out how the biology degree will translate to a career.
      And I still laughed at the video 😂.

      It didn't turn out so good.

    If I could go back in time and start from scratch, I would've picked pre-med. Strong job security, jobs usually have great benefits, and I can make a decent amount of money.
    But instead I went for computer science, lost interest in coding, dropped out of college and now working a dead-end job that's got no path forward.
    So if you're a high school student reading this, consider majoring in pre-med if you don't know what you want to do.
