I graduated last year with a ba in social work and I still can't find work in that area. I was employed for 6 months and was laid off on Monday. The job had nothing to do with social work but it paid the bills. It seems like everyone wants to hire someone with a master degree and it makes me feel that i'm just not good enough. I feel I had picked the wrong career path and should have become a medical asst or something. There are always jobs in the medical field. I wasted all those years in college and still can't find work. I have this student loan and it reminds me that I could have wasted all those years in college to become a social worker to help other people but I can't even help myself right now. In my heart I want to be a social worker to help people but what I want in my heart doesn't pay the bills.
