Years of underemployment is finally getting to me. So this moth's half-hearted tirades are about how employment sucks. But you know what's really bother's me? Puff Daddy. How much money does this guy have for ruining perfectly good songs? Sting, now Led Zeppelin, there is a string of crappy videos. And why do all of the videos that his director makes look alike? A bubble lens, sped up film, stop motion film. Originality is such a terrible thing. Oh well, on with the complaints.
The Economy.
I've been saying for a while now that the economy isn't as well off as people would like to believe. People didn't believe me. I said that too few people were making money because of it, but I'm not a economist. I said that most people were working part-time, minimum wage jobs that require no education, but what do I know. "It can't last like this!" I shouted from the roof tops, "It has to end soon and you all will see that things are not good!" No one listened.
But now the stock market dropped over 500 points. What a disaster. Oh no. Bill Gates and a lot of other rich people lost a lot of money. Isn't it interesting that was the first thing that was reported, not that millions of middle and lower class people got screwed on their 401k programs.
I've been trying for the three years since my college graduation to get a real job, but in that time I have only been on one job interview. But the economy is really strong. Most of the people that I know are also having trouble even getting job interviews from ad in the papers and off of the internet, but unemployment is down. Nope, this lack of decent jobs must be a figment of our collective imaginations.
Maybe, just maybe the sudden plummet of the stock market will make people open up their eyes and see that their jobs aren't that secure and they may have to brave the world of crap employment. Yeah, the glass is always half full for me.
Welcome back to School: You're Screwed!
Another summer has come and gone, and students are trudging back to school. Since most people are painfully oblivious to what conditions are like for those trying to survive in the job market outside of school.

Classes that universities and colleges need to offer to students
