Not that it hasn’t been this way before, but I was basically told today that my employer will not pay more than what an entry level salary would be for college graduates, regardless of experience.
What is this world coming to? Whoever are running the show are literally creating a privileged and slave class. All because I didn’t care to completely buy into the education system. It’s so wack to me.
It is true that having a college degree has become increasingly important in many fields, and that some employers may prioritize hiring college graduates over those without a degree. However, there are also many successful people who have achieved great things without a college degree, and it is important to remember that education is not the only path to success.
It is unfortunate that some employers may not value experience and skills as much as they value a college degree. However, it is important to continue to develop your skills and knowledge through other avenues, such as online learning, certifications, and training programs. You may also want to consider exploring alternative career paths or starting your own business, where your skills and experience can be more directly applied.
Remember, the most important thing is to prioritize your own personal and professional growth, and to choose a path that aligns with your values, skills, and goals. It may take time and effort to overcome societal and institutional barriers, but with perseverance, innovation, and hard work, you can create a meaningful and fulfilling life for yourself.
Let's say you're buying a car with an Electronic Brake System (EBS) that uses electronic controls to improve braking performance and safety. It uses sensors, control units, and electric signals to activate and control the braking force of each wheel independently. As you're thinking of buying it, the dealer says "And you know what's really crazy? The engineer who built this thing never set foot in an engineering school. He was completely self-taught." Yeah, not a chance I'm driving that car.
Sounds like it is time to find a new job, best time to job hunt right now than I have ever seen.
My company pays college grads a higher starting wage but ultimately they hit the glass ceiling together, it will take someone without the degree a few extra years.
The best paying jobs right now in high demand are trades. I know a mechanic who can't even hire mechanics for $40 dollars an hour and has several open positions open. The reason is simply there isn't any and trades are quick, 18 months or less usually.
On the other hand, if only college educated get to work in the future, guess they'll get to pay to support the non educated because they simply won't be able to get a job.

Well it's simple really. The system benefits the highly skilled because the highly skilled benefit the system. If you don't have a valuable skill then you're easily replaced so there's no pressure to pay you above minimum wage because there's a thousand other people happy to take that salary
Sounds like it's time for you to look for other employment.
Not at all. There are many fantastic blue collar trades that pay just as well as traditional "college" jobs, and even pay better If you start your own trade business.
It use to be; I'm not sure that's the case now
