Optimism slowly drains you
I can only be positive for so long. With every publication pointing out the obvious dreaded state that we're in, I can't help but slip into a downward spiral towards pessimism.. The front page of the Careers section of my local Paper just flat out said there are no jobs for the 20 somethings b/c the 30 somethings with more experience are taking lower income jobs to stay afloat.. so these 20 somethings (me and my friends) are forced to either a)stay in school by taking out loans and coming out in a few years with more debt than ever (b)move in with the parental units or (c)move over seas to find jobs abroad.. This just blows.. I've been looking for 10 months and all I have to show for it are 2 internships that have not and will not turn into permanent full-time employment. Now yes, it could be a lot worse.. I have no kids, no wife.. no one depending on me to make a living but me... but with the way retirement ages are going up.. i wait any longer and i'll be working until i'm effing 90...I'm just tired of the crap.. ready for the economy to turn around.. and ready for all these bastards in the media explaining how bad it really is, all-day everyday. All you are really doing is scaring people half to death so that the small amount of money they do have.. stays in their pockets thus not stimulating the economy... I'm done venting.. maybe i'll wake up on the right side of the bed tomorrow...
