You lost your right to play the "creeping me out" card, when you chose that avatar.

In my experience, business majors are generally dime a dozen, and their 'jack of all trades' mentality isn't a real plus. Anyone can pick up business principles...which is why people go back to b-school. Employers are more worried about aptitude and ability to pick up the business concepts quickly.

Employer: So, what skills do you have that suit you for our industry?
Brand X: Well, I'm a business major, so I know about business.
Employer: Next...

I majored in history and got a job in business out of school. Undergrad is normally when you "do what you like." Most people in business get MBAs anyway at some point...so that's where you can hone your business skills. One tip: make sure you take calculus or some kind of quantitative courses undergrad, because that will make it easier to get into business school or pursue any "science" type of graduate program.
