‘Degree Vs. Current Job’ Trend Has Got People Shared Hilarious Life Stories
Life has such a funny way to bring you where you need to be in life.
What did you dream of being when you were a kid? When we hear kids talk about their dreams, the most common answers are to become doctors, nurses, astronauts, or police officers. Typically, they want to become cool people who do something great for others.

But life… has its own way. D Piddy shares how his major and current life just don’t coincide.
@blackkout___ Calling all college grads #college #collegemajor #millennial #deppression
original sound – D Piddy
His viral video calls out to other college grads to share their life stories as well. He jokingly began by sharing that he majored in Communications, and now he’s “depressed.” Honestly, that’s relatable when you look at job postings for entry-level that also ask for a 2-year experience at the same time.
Life is just weird that way.
At over 1.2 million views, others share just how their life is currently at where they never planned to be at.

“Believe it or not, I got a degree in Financial Management. My Asian parents told me to study about money to make a lot of money. Of course I listened to them, did everything right, but find out 10 years later I was so unhappy. So after 10 years in that blood sucking boring ash job, I quit that beesh and started a meal prep company. Now I get paid to cook delish Lao Food and host cooking parties.
Moral of the story: live your dreams, bish and don’t listen to nobody. Trust yo gut and listen to yo damn self and don’t be lazy bish.”

Ultimately, I graduated from Penn State University with a degree in Advertising and Public Relations and a minor in Statistics…
And now I sell compromising videos and photos of myself online and tell people how to f**k. And why do I do this you may ask? Because I make more money that way than I do with all those degrees. In all seriousness though stay in school.”

I started posting on social media, and literally 10+ years later, finally, I have my own shoe. This colorway is inspired by Goku from Dragon Ball Z, it’s a collab with one of my favorite shoe brands, Sia Collective, and it wouldn’t be possible without your support. So thanks.”
