Can anybody give me the full conversation he has at the job interview when the guy says he needs more experience? Ends with Brantley saying "so why did i go to college?"

Thanks.

I'm doing this from memory, so I can't guarantee every word. But here goes:

Man: I'm sorry, Mr...

Brantley: Foster.

Man: Mr. Foster. We need someone with experience.

Brantley: But I took classes in college that prepared me for jobs like this, so in a sense, I have experience.

Man: What you have is college experience. Not the practical, hard-nosed business experience we're looking for. If you'd joined our training program out of high school, you'd be qualified for this job now.

Brantley: Then what did I go to college for?

Man: Had fun, didn't you?

I'm trying, Ringo. I'm trying real hard to be the shepherd.

Thank you, I couldn't figure out what he said, either.
