IT stuff - not primarily scripting or programming, but a bit of that too. Honestly, though, the degree just got my foot in the door since I knew nobody and nobody would give me a chance until I got it. All it got me was that and debt, in my view. Degrees are optional for IT if you have a foot in the door or connections. My superiors at work either have an unrelated degree, didn't finish college, or didn't even go to college. I'm from a single mother lower middle class income household in the middle of nowhere, so I needed the degree, which got me connections which got me jobs. The degree itself did little.

Side note since my above reply made me think of it: At least 95% of my peers are not like me. Probably closer to 99% in the last two companies I've worked for. They have advantages like crazy that they don't realize were advantages. I don't begrudge them their advantages, but I do feel out of place at times. And some of what is common sense to them, is not common sense to me. In other words, they were brought up by different people, meaning at times I feel retarded and have to work that much harder. When they start telling stories about their professor mother or scientist or vice president or director father, or the traveling they did as a kid and so on, I've got nothing to match said stories and I can see how that kind of stuff changed their lives. But I suppose I'm proof that 10-15 years ago the American dream was still alive?

I've even done a good bit of traveling since graduating and now live in a much better place than where I grew up.
