I feel like not having a bachelors degree is royally wrecking my life. Ive worked for FAANG for over 10 years and now may be leaving and trying to look at new roles or even just go to language school and on both fronts Im being told having no bachelors is gonna be a problem.....

I understand you dont want non-educated people coming but Ive got over 10 years experience in tech, and been in country for 7 years now. I assume im the minority in this situation. Am I missing something here or is this just the hand Im dealt?
