    That's awesome!! Congrats!! I totally understand the struggle...minus the lack of snakes on the premises. That would have been unbearable! I don't know how you're managing without your snakeys. I graduated with my B.S. in Biology almost two years ago. After not finding any "grown up" jobs as I like to call them, I finally found a minimum wage job to hold me over. And then another...since one wasn't paying the bills. Finally I decided to go get a master's degree...and keep the two jobs.

    It's become nearly impossible to get a job in your field with a Bachelor's degree these days. It's awful. You bust your butt for years and then you end up right where you would have been if you never went to college.

    Congrats again on finding that job!! I hope to be making a similar post one of these days.

    Yeah, getting a 4 year degree has really been a challenge mentally. I kept asking myself why I bothered because now I have a huge debt to pay. I couldn't find work that made it worth it. People with Master's degrees were working the positions I was qualified for, it was really disheartening. Getting a masters degree is still on my agenda, I started taking classes part time again just to get back into the swing of things :/
