No, you shouldn’t have.  There just aren’t enough jobs out there for planners.

My brother spent years trying to get a job in planning, after he got his BURP (Bachelor of Urban & Regional Planning).

Finally, he gave up and went into I.T., then worked his tail off to get an MBA, and then became a Business Analyst in the I.T. division of one of the big banks.

But, when Dad got his degree, it was the early 1960s, and planners were very much in demand!

Universities really need to stop churning out way too many people with degrees in fields that already have way too many qualified people for the number of available jobs.
