My wife thinks I'm crazy...

Am I nuts?

Posted on 4/12/2006 at 1:08 PM

My wife thinks that I am.  I am going back to school in the fall to earn my second bacheor's degree, this time in english lit.  I already have an associate's in criminal justice, one in business management, and a bachelor's in paralegal studies.  The problem is that I, like most people, cannot get job at a salary to support my extravagant lifestyle.  This lifestyle includes 2 cars and a house.  Nothing really fancy, a small house (2200 sq ft), a nice car (dodge) and a family van (ford) for my wife(which she hates).  I think that if I add another degree to my resume, this time in english, that I will be more attractive to employers.  I just worry about what an employer thinks when he sees all this school time.  I wonder if he thinks that I just can't decide on what I want to do, or if he sees me as a person always trying to improve myself.  I hope the latter.  I don't mind being in school. I like the interaction and I crave knowledge.  My work life has been reduced to an 8x8 cubicle and the only people that I talk to are mad because I am taking their money.  I need positive interaction.  Please leave a comment if you are involved in the hiring process, or even if you are not, and let me know what you would think of  a resume containing 4 jobs (4-8 yrs a piece) and 4 degrees.  Thanks.
