You guys have a superiority complex? That must be nice!
As a chemist, all I got was a shortened lifespan.
Need to make a new compound? Use a carcinogen
Liquid/liquid extraction? Carcinogen
Neutralize a reactive compound? Carcinogen
Clean your glassware? Believe it or not, carcinogen.
Chemists have the most applicable skills of any science majors, and it’s all because of carcinogens.
To quote an old professor: “there isn’t a lab table dirty enough that a little benzene won’t clean it!” Fortunately for us (and him) ‘they’ wouldn’t let him do that anymore.
He also habitually turned his head sideways when working with, say, ether, because you dont want your pipe to set the fumes on fire.
Seriously. As a biologist, my education was general enough that I learned how little I know about everything, instead giving me an inferiority complex.
When it comes to the U.S (it doesn’t seem to mention employment rate) Mathematics was 11th place in the highest paying majors 5 years in according to an NY Federal reserve study last month: https://www.cnbc.com/2024/03/14/highest-paying-college-majors-5-years-after-graduation.html
Add history majors
I have an ex friend who was condescending 100% of the time, despite being constantly being unemployed/working retail.
When you see the bigger picture, but not what lies directly in front of you.
Hey now. Us physics majors can just do less efficient engineering work.
…with an inferiority complex.
Less efficient, but superior engineering! Eventually. For large values of later.
Only if it’s a spherical frictionless cow, which all things are
The smart ones went into finance
There are smart people in finance?
Yes, but they don’t have finance or business degrees.
I was tutoring maths to students enrolled in the economics program at a uni. And… Wow. Yeah…
Yes, they just lack morals and empathy.
Just get a programming job
Done, but I am simply so much better than all the IT majors… I feel superior.
