Side Short Rant:
Why does the market have to suck as I am graduating?
I don't know how many of you are graduating from college this year or next, but there is absolutely NOWHERE to go. Personally, I am an education major graduating in two weeks and I can get a job easy if I move down south. It's tough to get a teaching job here. However, several of my friends are finding no work in many various fields. I remember reading in the Pittsburgh Post Gazette that this year is the toughest year on record (how the hell do they measure that?) for students with a four year degree to land a job. Companies are being very tight with vacancies. When someone retires or leaves they are finding it better to "do without" the position or increase the responsibilities of other workers.
The next few years are going to be very difficult for many. Sadly I see it getting much worse before it gets any better.
