The great part about entering a miserable field where everyone is quitting is that you can at least get hired. The bad part speaks for itself

I remember one role where they listed a maths degree as essential; turns out their idea of "degree level mathematics" was calculating standard deviation and variance.

Generally, even if a job suggests it's in your field, you're not going to spread your wings much. I do think this is part of why people hate their jobs so much - they trained hard, learned so many things, and then got dumped into microsoft office and "doing things as they've always been done" because some arse in HR was unicorn hunting.

Me in IT after being out of work for the past year and a half.

I'm a computer science major. If I graduate after the bubble pops, I don't know what I'm gonna do.
