Hey, philosophy majors, why did you choose that?

Hey, philosophy majors, why did you choose that?
>>
They were the classes that interested me most. Now I am dropping out to become an electrician and pursue philosophy in my own time.
>>
I have other plans for my career so I took a philosophy degree because it was an area of interest, don't regret it at all
>>
>>940557
Because I am a fucking idiot

They fell for the meme

>>940557
Life is to short to waste it in studies whose only pleasure (for you) is the money they may offer you.
>>
At first I thought I would be able to uncover the truth that resides in the world.

Now my goal is to push my philosophy on other people.

I took one class and loved it. Currently doing a B.A in Philosophy after dropping out of my CompSci degree since I loved it so much. Might even add another liberal arts major.

Philosophy isnt the modern stereotypical white male thinking "The Nature of the soul is with God" It has a much greater logical and analytical reasoning than most other majors besides History. Hell Philosophy is a lot similar to mathematics (Discrete Mathematics) in some aspects. I don't regret changing my major to Philosophy as im currently pursuing the degree now. It might take an extra year or so but I believe its well worth it. Philosophy to me is alcohol for the soul.

STEM doesn't really give a higher level on in depth thinking its very rigid.Unless you take math based with proofs and possibly upper level theory based ones;

The compsci meme isn't a meme at all

Picked it up as a double major with all my elective time because I was interested. Not having any trouble supporting myself and have zero debt. No regrets.
