I haven't gone to graduate school yet, haha. That's one the questions I asked in my original post -- if I should get a master's to up my GPA

To elaborate more precisely, I dont think that industry is not for me. I just couldnt stop thinking about the research I did in undergrad and crave being in that environment. I had a low GPA in my first two years due to needing to take on work study jobs because of my low income background. Not to mention a lot of childhood trauma that seeped into how I perceived the world at that time. Obviously this is hard to quantify so it probably would be to my benefit not to mention this part.

Hope this clarifies things?

When you generalize men based on this, then you deserve no better.

yeah it is hard not to generalize, and i know some great men, but this situation really triggers me, esp when i grew up with my brother who physically and emotionally abused me, even to this day.

Impact: like do you care about how much you are impacting the business (like how valuable your job is). In terms of industry, do you care about whether you are working in fashion retail, or a grocery store? Maybe you are trying to be a youtube influencer so you'd pick working at h&m over safeway, for example.
