But I know several college grads who, even with their degree, ended up as managers at fast food or retail venues, simply because the fields they got their degree in began to shrink to the point there were more people looking for jobs in that field than there were jobs. A few went back to college, got a degree in another field, got a job in that field for awhile, then lost it, because that field also began to shrink.
