LOL. I think she meant exactly what she typed.
ETA: After reading this post, I realize what you meant by "I hate it when people say you are overqualified." I thought you meant that you hate it when people say THEY are overqualified. You meant that you hate it when employers tell you that. LOL. I've had that happen a couple of times. Thank God because I really shouldn't have been working at those places.

This isn't completely accurate, though. There are fields/industries and employers where a masters is still a masters and a doctorate is still a doctorate. The point of downplaying your education sometimes is to be marketable outside of those industries and employers. That's why I recommend people have 2 resumes.
