Strangely enough, being a dropout sounds sexier than having a BA in English! This all happened waaaay back in 2007 when my resume wasn't as impressive. Since then I've really fleshed it out, and I can get hired places on the strength of my accomplishments regardless of what I studied a decade ago. It's too bad working for Google doesn't sound as appealing now as it did in 2007, or I might just try applying.
