point is without that degree you're not going to even get through the door
and be given the training.

exactly,
college is great (it was for me in many respects)
but have a good idea of what you want to become career wise
I didn't so I chose the most challenging thing I could
and now I have a Physics degree that I've never put to use
not to say my education was pointless
organization, task management, work ethic and the confidence
in knowing that I can do anything I put my mind to is a direct
result of my education
I love my job but it's demanding and carries a great deal of
responsibility and stress
I didn't go to school to learn it
I was brought into a 'sink or swim' situation by a friend
(whom I met at a 240 meet btw)
couldn't have done it without my education background
and on the other hand:
my boss/friend who runs the company I work at is a HS drop out
one of a few people I've met in my life that is literally too smart for school
