I will highlight this part of your post, in context with the article [speech?]'s drdiving point:

> "You have never even interned in your field??".

The article is for people who don't have a field. In some circles, this is not a concept people speak about, but I think it represents many or most people who graduate university (in the US at least). The specialized fields like doctor, lawyer, engineer etc you hear about represent a minority of students and jobs. Many or most graduates end up in some variant of the fidelity customer service job.

The world is filled with office buildings, and generic office jobs. You need a college degree to get them, and no special skills.
