Is this why English majors are qualified to ask, "Do you want fries with that?"
Hey, don't knock English majors. Most of them must actually know how to read before they graduate: something that cannot always be said of engineers (Case in point: our Jorrell.), and if you can read, you can learn anything (Case in point: I and the Standard Oil(NJ) Blue Books for engineering and operations.
As for Greek studies: if that involves learning the language, I'm sure graduates in that field can have even brighter futures than English majors. Just consider how much more difficult it is to read Greek than English.
But I agree with you regarding sociology graduates and table saws. That's why so many of them become CEOs of major corporations. I claim the right to say that without presenting supporting statistics because Google is on strike today. So, you'll just have to take my word for it. I'm confident, however, that you'll believe me when I tell you that I personally knew one who had two fingers missing from his right hand and that, although they called him slight of hand, he was a paragon of honesty and all other forms of morality.
The thing that really frightens my, however, is how many economists end up in the securities and financial rackets.
I shall now remove that tongue from my cheek before I permanently distort my handsome features.
