“Bachelor’s Degree Required” is unjustified discrimination.

I'm tired of seeing this in so many job postings. They require that you have a bachelor's degree but with no specific field mentioned. They don't care what your degree is in, just that you have one. Maybe it's so they can get someone in enough debt to keep them obedient and afraid to quit. I'm considering lying to employers and telling them I have a degree in some inane field that doesn't apply to the job at all just to see how they react. “Oh you require a bachelor's degree for this job as a customer service rep? You're in luck! I have a degree in Astrobiology!”
