its not really an issue specially if that position offer you bigger salary and as long as our happy and contented with it. having a degree is not really means that you will need to just follow it but its only a big credit for you to be qualified with the job nor have credentials in every job, unless your a doctor nor an engineer though sometimes an engineer can also work in just as plain office employee if theres really no available post for them than be jobless. but of course if you think theres available post for the said course you have then you can give it a try to apply while having your job. its still depend to you.

Good day to you.
With reference to that, I dont see any reason why not to accept the job which is far from your course. For me, this is not a big deal at all. The important factors for me are, the atmosphere in the work. Where it covers the working atmosphere, that it promotes a good working relation. The fair treatment among the staff. The fair labour practices. And where the management accepts at least some good suggestions from their staff that will further create a harmonious working relationship.
And these things may be applicable though the workers are in different nationalities.

It's like living in a different country, different from where you grew up. But it's filled with excitement and surprises. Like me, my field is Pharmacy. About 2 years ago, I took a job as a warehouse manager of a marketing company. At first it was very difficult, but as time went by I was able to adjust to the nature of my work.

You fill lost,unworthy,incomplete and it proves it's self in performance. This is a situation that i was in some time back when my Dad wanted me to do what he wanted me to be in the future.
I was always depressed during lectures or sleeping!
I started hating my dad too!
It was terrible
