Discretion still matters – don’t hurt your career by sharing too much
I'm 40, and some of my coworkers are like 25.  I'm about two management levels above the basic engineers, but we're a small company and everyone knows everyone.So I'm having lunch with some of the engineers, and one of them shares out of the blue that she regrets getting a computer science degree at her (good) college, and thinks she should've gone into business instead.  And my immediate thought is, "For god's sake, don't SAY that shit around me, I'm someone who has a big say in your career prospects."I like having a casual, informal work experience.  But it's a thin layer.  Ultimately, this is still a hierarchy, and ultimately, you have to think about who you're talking to.(Separately:  Don't get an undergraduate degree in business.  What a worthless degree.)
