Philosophy major

Seriously, what is there to do in this field? Not trying to bash you or any other philosophy student out there but I had to take two semesters of this subject and found it to be the biggest waste of my time that I have ever experienced in my educational career. What do you do with this major other than teach it to more philosophy students? I know the age old joke is that on the last day of class for a philosophy major they teach all the students to say with a smile "Would you like fries with that?".

It teaches you how to think...it is easier to learn things after taking philosophy classes. Philosophy majors are very likely to get accepted into med or law school or any type of higher education program really. Also a lot of companies will hire people who they think are smart and hardworking regardless of degree if they think they can learn the necessary skills on the job.

Maybe I've had just a bad experience with Philosophy majors but everyone that I have had to deal with are obnoxious over-thinkers who question everyone else's decisions with their own non-reality based ideas. Just me? They all seem 'smart' by quoting the theories of some dead guy from the 18th century, but they just seem to miss the point on most things. Life is not as complex as they make it out to be. But then again, maybe that's just me.

Alright, I'm not a woman. But if a woman had a choice between three men:
A) A business management student going for his masters in Human Resources and a job lined up with a Fortune 500 company.
B) A pilot who has been in the Navy for several years and flies S-3's all over the globe
or
C) Someone who thinks.

I just can't see many women picking C on this one. Again, this is from my experience with Philosophy majors that I know of, all of which are single I believe.
