Guy at LDSERC: "What did you study in school?"

Me: "Marriage family and human development"

Guy at LDSERC: "Oh. So what are you going to do with that?"

*awkward pause*

Me: "What I'm doing now... job coaching. Social work."

Guy at LDSERC: "Oh. Well that's nice."

Moral of the story:

If nobody respected your major while you were in school, nobody will respect it as a career choice.

*grumble*
