Zero Work, Full Degree

Zero Work, Full Degree
physics-memes, graduation-memes, unemployment-memes, work-memes, force-memes | ScienceHumor.io

Four years of quantum mechanics and advanced calculus, and what do you get? A physics degree that does zero work. The meme brilliantly illustrates the classic physics equation W = F·d·cos(θ), where if displacement (d) equals zero or the angle is 90°, the work done is precisely... nothing. Just like your career prospects! From graduation cap to McDonald's cap with a brief stint throwing your degree in the trash—at least the math checks out. Turns out understanding the fundamental forces of the universe doesn't force employers to hire you.
