I always wondered what was wrong with me. I’m too educated. 😄

How is it that I know so many quasi-literate knuckle-draggers with zero critical thinking skills if we’re so ‘educated’? Like what’s the metric for deciding someone is ‘educated’?

No wonder nothing is being built in this country, too many engineers and architects.

A degree is a piece of paper and a mortar board. Nothing more, nothing less. An ounce of experience is worth more than a ton of education.

I wonder if this is anything to do with the number of degrees we have for things which other countries would rightly do as appreticships or just not bother teaching as a degree?

Walk around a bit in Dublin 1 and wait for this huge mass of brain energy hit you in the face 😂
Sounds good on paper though.

So much wrong with this . China is way up there. Outstrips most of the world I would think. Tech geniuses, hardware that we can only dream of, engineers abundant.Ireland is only educated to what it gets told. They Probably still think “Danny Boy” wasn’t written by an Englishman
All adults (as opposed to those aged 25-64) gives a different result and apparently puts Canada in the lead. But the jump Canada makes sens too large for me to believe both of these are accurate.

Oh look it’s a relatively positive metric about Ireland. The misery brigade will be hard at work spinning it negatively
This list puts Canada in the lead if all adults are included. But the jump seems too large for me to believe both data sets are accurate. Who cares anyway.

Degree Inflation is a real thing, and can cause many issues.

I don’t give a flying fuck about the sour cunts in here, this makes me really proud for a minute. Growing up it felt like college was a pipe dream for me and everyone I knew, now 1 in every 2 people has graduated with a Bachelor’s?
