there's a guarantee that a degree will lead to a job (ask your waiter this weekend).

Yes my youngest daughter has an honors degree from a University and paid for it by being a waitress . After graduating she continued to be a waitress. She currently makes as much or more money as a college grad and finds it very exciting .
She worked in the theater district in TO and just moved to a new restaurant (same owners)in the Toronto film Festival building. It is a high end restaurant where tips are often over $500 a night. She says the movie guys are lousy tippers though !
