I say go back, and the sooner you go back the better in order to have a better chance at receiving a higher-paying job. I don't know how the Canadian health care system works, but in America some health insurance providers have this rule: "Either go to college right after high school or you'll have to get your own insurance." You can't even take a semester off inbetween high school and college to relax.

Anyway, technological jobs seem to be in high demand (along with pharmeceutical and nursing) so you shouldn't have too much trouble finding a decent job after you graduate. I know some people who were like you and decided that college wasn't as interesting as other issues, so they decided to quit, but some of them are returning to college to major in a different field. If it's not the field that bores you, then you may want to consider a different University since they could have more of a theological/practical curriculum--depending on your preference of learning.

If you think you can tough college out and not quit, then you should try to get the degree. If you are uncertain, then you could attend college part time while looking for a job. Instead of saying "3 to 4 semesters" you may want to give them a more accurate answer (such as how many credits you have) and list the classes that could give you an edge if you want to avoid going to college. College offers more security from the real world and it allows you to have experiences that you would be difficult to have outside of college, but either way you decide make sure to take your welfare into consideration.

You're not alone. There are a lot of Doctorates who are having trouble finding high-paying jobs due to McJobdom, and I am afraid that it will not get better after the baby boomers retire (if they can due to the credit card companies jacking up their interest rates all at once). Connections are very imporant in getting hired, which is why getting a part-time job or internship could be vital in getting a job after college.

Jam it back in, in the dark.
