I earned a bachelor’s and a master’s degree in computer science consecutively and was very proud of it. I worked in the field until the age of 33, when I married my husband, whom I met the year prior during the pandemic, and decided to stop working to focus on being a trophy wife full-time. I’m currently considering getting a PhD, since I have a lot of time on my hands, to complete the academic “trifecta”.
I have a bachelor’s but quite honestly, in my current job, I don’t need it. The only reason why I got it was just to have that shiny title on my resume. The job I have barely requires anything I learned in school and school was a lot harder than my current job. So, all in all, it’s a nice to have but not needed.
