I studied psychology and neuroscience in college, but now I've realized psychology is a scam and neuroscience only offers career paths of monklike cloistering in academia to exhaustively study the mitochondria counts of individual mollusk neurons. Seriously pursuing literature as a career is stupid, I'm too autistic for finance or lawyering, and I would have to get As in chemistry and physics classes while working part time for the next two or three years and get an above average MCAT score for even just a coin flip chance of medical school admission.

Should I get one of those extremely specific oil rig licensures and be a sort accelerationist hermit at sea?

astrology can help you find what you are suited for if you know how to properly assess your chart. i don't trust professional astrologers so i would avoid them

You might be trying to be but I really think this is the case.

5+ years working on a land based rig seems like the amount they would be looking for. The days of training seem long gone. Experience is everything even in the most menial of jobs.

I think of starting over and getting another degree. It's pretty much free where I'm from and I think I'm missing out on the social experience. Is it worth it, or should I proceed down the easy and not very rewarding path of sitting alone at night in front of the computer forever? How do I into decision making?
