True, a degree is. Piece of paper that verifies you went to school. It don't mean squat . I have my masters but only cuz it's the only means I had of getting a raise in pay in my field. No raise in 13 years but get 50 bucks added to my weekly pay lol. Before I even had my BA I supervised masters level worker that recently graduated only because nothing in classes were relevant to the real world duty status of each position . The worse people on my work team are college grads because not only do they lack experience they think that paper entitled them to avoid the hard parts of the work day, so when I had to assign the monitoring and cleaning of the rest rooms it gave me great satisfaction to assign the cleaning of smeared feces and the mopping up of an ocean of urine , all client / patients were HIV and hepatitis carriers so I had even greater pleasure of disciplining them for always neglecting to use universal precautions and proper chemicals for germ control . In this country people are shallow impatient and completely ignorant. They emphasize that paper way too much. I worked the mental health field for years went to school part time so I could work and support myself, I learned how to work my way to the top . In my training I have trained and studied obsessively for almost 30 years and addition I got my CSCS Which requires a degree not just few classes and a test to train others another example of paper bulkshit , I got one cuz no one cares if you actually know what your doing. We can use here as an analogy I been around for decade or so, I know mr. Adjos is one of exceptional empirical experience relating to bodybuilding topics, probably more than 99% of anyone throughout the community , I have no doubt in my mind , yet I see I'm some threads where those who truly embrace ignorance referring to that as " bioscience " another slang term created by insecure individuals to disguise their overt ignorance. I can also reflect on my 40+ years of martial art training all over this planet with some of the most prestigious masters ect, I do have several superficial Blackbelts but even many experienced martial artists can't possibly understand that the mere use of the , " dan" ranking system ( black belt " ) indicates a modern form of martial arts where over the last century because of sport and the rules of society all modern forms have barely any combat left on them, the term " art" is a term of aesthetics not effectiveness in battle. People are caught up in a piece of paper that means nothing to those who truly understand. Bjj is a judo , a great sport but not for combat, maybe useful for like police to control . Karate, wushu , kung fu all sports, art forms or exercise . A trained soldier , trained to kill would never use these unless they were ignorant . The soldiers and warriors where they all came from had no belts or any board breaking or katas blah blah blah this all was created in piece they eliminated all the lethal techniques. Punching with a fist and kicking had no place in a soldiers arsenal , weapons open handed or strikes to vital areas and limb/ joint destruction. In real jujutsu ( koryu bujutsu) or Silat or Kali there are no such thing as holds or submissions. No kicks that create one to lose power and or balance . The methods or principles utilized for weapons were identical to hand to hand just movements were tighter or distance was shorter. The whole notion of 20 years to become a master or to learn a # of forms was created to extend the need for a teacher so they could make money FACT not OPINION ! There are many that may say I'm misinformed when I'm my real world I'm considered an authority- it is they that practice and don't get how their own art came to be, why? That stupid useless meaningless piece of paper
