The issue is that they're mostly petrochem companies and I don't want to suck their dick back. I'm trying to fight against the urge to sell out, but uncle sam is going to bang my door down for these student loans in short order so I may ultimately be forced. It's also hard to watch my mom drown under her debt and this would give me an easy route to fix that.

I basically figured, look, if I'm being ass rammed this hard for money--I might as well try to game the system and get something out of it.

So far, it is not lost on the employers I've been speaking with that I've completed all of the MS coursework. Most of them could give a damn about the thesis. In general I'm being offered mid-level positions that an experience BS candidate or an entry level MS candidate would be offered.

What industry wants and what college provides are two diametrically opposed things. My saving grace is my YEARS of laboratory experience. That puts me significantly ahead of most people leaving school with only a BS. General for an undergrad you do a semester of research. I completed 9, and most employers are sucking my dick about it right now.

I'm trying to convince myself that these aren't the roads I want to travel, but like i said--capitalism.

I might as well add my 2 cents if it can help someone out. I purchased the new Quick fix urine version 6.1 it has the previous mixed uric acid that some labs are now looking for. I had the stuff in my glove box for a few weeks because I heard a test might be coming up since we got bought out. We'll I was handed some paperwork and was told I had to drop in 1 hour.....shit....I pulled over at 7-11 and popped the shit in the microwave for 10 seconds and stuffed it in my pants. I poured the Quick Fix in the cup came out and handed to the chick. Needless to say the shit worked I passed a 10 panel test I got it from www.quickfixsynthetic.com best believe I'm buying more now lol.
