@elite.recruiter: If you have done everything right and it still is not adding up, you are not imagining it. The deal changed. The degree opens doors now. It no longer fills the room. And the professionals who are winning in this market are not the ones waiting for the system to reward their effort on its own timeline. They are the ones who figured out that visibility, positioning, relationships, and optionality are the new currency. You cannot play a 1980s career game in a 2026 economy and expect 1980s results.

This is why pay as you earn needs to decrease and inheritance tax increase. Boomers made more than they should for themselves and their kids

For over 40 years, most western education systems have not been preparing students for the real world. If someone doesn’t have parents or mentors to provide insight, they end up as part of the same flock & that hasn’t cut it for nearly 20 years….

Sociologists talked about the proletarianisation of the blue collar workforce- we’re in proletarianisation of the white collar workforce

On the flip side, there are many highly trained and very capable people in the office who don’t have a degree and are unable to get promoted simply because they lack one. Meanwhile, positions are sometimes given to people who do have a degree but have little to no practical knowledge or experience doing the actual job. A degree doesn’t necessarily mean someone is more qualified.

Dr. Michael Majeski :
I have been in IT Service Management for 30 years, and a Project Manager for most of that. In order to get out of that I had to take large career risks like taking roles bigger than my grade so leadership would see me as promotable. Second, I completed a professional doctorate to seal a promotion. While many of my peers remain in the PM trench or unemployed-I did not want to be forced to retire in my 60s. This also is helping me get into higher Ed to professor, which is my eventual off ramp. The post is correct but had to go through hell and sacrifice a lot to have a chance.
I absolutely love this! Adding these books to my read list

The career game has changed, and effort alone is no longer enough. Knowing how to position your expertise, build relationships, and create options is part of the work now.

I tell younger people all the time that for me obtaining a degree was a guaranteed good job. In the 90’s and 2000’s, the economy made sense for income

Months before my buddy hit the 25-year mark to be fully vested at AT&T they made sweeping cuts. There's no loyalty to loyal people anymore!
