Emperors don't need proper spelling, they can do what they want.

I gradded in April with a BA Honours in History and a minor in Professional Writing. Still looking for work....

Just out of curiosity, what kind of work are you supposed to find with a degree in history other than a job teaching history?

I've asked him before, but he won't tell you unless you answer some asinine riddle.

I feel lonely, (likely) working towards a Psychology degree...

The History degree is pretty much un-employable. Even if I wanted to teach History, I'd have to go back to school and get my PhD.

It's the professional writing and publishing that I'm trying to use to find jobs... I took history more for personal interest, and because I had to major in SOMETHING (there was no writing/publishing major).

Professional Writing and Publishing is actually a pretty employable area, since essentially every company ever needs to employ someone with these kinds of skills. But most places seem to prefer experience to education. (Surprise!) Plus, I live in pretty small town on an island, which means there isn't a lot of work to be had to begin with.

One word: Move.

Well, that's the other problem. You need money to move.

I was thinking of becoming a bank robber.
