You can do a lot with that skill though. A lot more than an English degree. Hindsight is 20/20 and I fortunately found a great job after school but I'm not under any impression that my lack of a marketable hard skill will make me desirable to an employer when its time to move on.
I honestly want to be in business for myself and be as mobile as possible in the long term but I have a lot of catching up and networking to do before thats possible. For me, that means developing my skills through education now and paying off student loans with a guarenteed paycheck and doing some resume building free lance work so I can prove I know what the eff I'm doing even though I don't have the degree. It also means silly certifications through community colleges and maybe, just maybe, some time in the military as a reservist to tack on some additional lines of resume shit.
