So, I've decided that it might be a good idea to go back and get some secondary schooling.
The thing that worries me is, my bachelors has done nothing to help me get a good job. Really, the only thing that helped me get my last job was the fact that I have worked for 3 other call centers. I'm just worried that I will go back and get an advanced degree (masters of library science) and when I get out, I will find out it still isn't going to help me get an interesting job.

I'm, just wondering, is this a grounded fear? How many people out there have masters and still flip burgers or work in a call center? Will a masters help?
