> How come my soccer friend thinks he can watch a bunch of Javascript youtube clips and take an easy distance course at a university to score him a high paying job 2 months from now? That's not how it works

Except it's exactly how it works: Your soccer friend can probably job-hop for years before everyone realises they have no idea how to tell a computer what to do, and by that point, they might be ready for management.

Why are you so mad? You think hard work should be appreciated or something?
