No, getting a degree will not be a waste of time. I earned an associates at 24 and finally finished the four year degree in ERAU's independant learning program when I was 38. The only reason I decided to finish was to be able to fill in the box on an application. I was SO wrong. After taking the upper level courses, I realized just how much I didn't know.

Anyway, it always bothers me when people judge other people by the education or lack of education they have. Which leads to me question - will I never get a major airline job because all I have is a two year degree?

there are alot of stupid people with masters degrees. It is what you put into your education which determines what you gain on the intelectual level. so, mr. tumbler, or can i call you rump? If you are more educated without attending any formal education classes than the frat boys who are just in it for the free beer, then you would be even MORE intelligent with a college degree. becouse you would stretch the learning part of it instead of trying to pass a class that you know nothing about. I think the airlines want college degrees becouse it shows that not only are we in love with airplanes but that we are able to use our intelects in other ways. If you want to get a degree so you can "check a box" on an airline application, then you gained nothing out of the education.
An educated man wouldn't end a sentence with a preposition. They taught me that in college.There are many people who went to college who are more educated than I am

I have walked in the enlisted mans shoes for three years in the the 101st Airborne Division (infantry) before I got smart and went to officer candidate school. .......... An ironic observation I made in the military is that some of the worst officers were prior enlisted soldiers. Explain that one!
