me, I read Classics and I work in finance

I think vocational degrees should be limited to such things as Law, Medicine, Architecture, Engineering etc
 
Unfotunately degrees mean next to nowt now, compared to say 20-30 year ago . Its become almost the norm now for kids to stay on and go to university, many badly advised into doing meaningless degrees
 
Bachelors and Doctorate in Molecular Biology.

Starting a job in software development in May.
Wow! That's quite a shift after what was a lot of work I bet. Did you just get bored of science if you don't mind me asking? Will you still call yourself Dr Charmless Man in the software industry?

Bored of it, disillusioned with it, burned out from too many 12 hour days.

Luckily I did bits and pieces of coding for data analysis so I'm not going in totally blind. But they did interview me for a different job and offered me a software job after the interview.

I'll probably use the title, aye. Four years of toil and I suppose it does carry a certain amount of gravitas.
