Retail pays more than professional office jobs.

I had a great interview today. It was for a large company that has desk job available. I'm more than capable to perform the job and was given an offer. The hourly pay was surprisingly well below what I am being paid while working in retail. It wouldn't be worth it for me to leave my current job for this position even though it 'looks better' socially. I have a college degree and very proficient in computers. Why aren't companies paying people what they are worth? I went to school to be educated with a valuable set of skills but no one wants to pay for them. I like my current job but it was supposed to be short term while I find a career that leads somewhere.
