I can't wrap my head around his reasoning. I've always thought; get your foot in the door, work hard, do what needs to be done - not necessarily the same as what is in your job description, and you'll get where you want to be - however you define that.

Yep agreed. A degree means nothing without experience. Experience translates across job fields too, there is meaningful transferrable skills you can pick up even in a "dead-end" job. Especially in this economy... get your foot in the door somewhere and start building up your resume.
