    means I was born in a place that the sky was supposedly the limit and all things would come out good if you put the hard work in. Thing is, that ended in like 1970. I put the hard work into a Masters degree and sent out over 1,250 resumes/CVs to Fortune 500 marketing departments..............no $50 thousand dollar a year starting offer for a fresh graduate and kept sending and sending..........to no avail. no interviews........nothing
    rejection letters and 65 thousand dollars of student loans to pay back from a BA and a Masters. Had to take $14 dollar an hour customer service jobs just to pay the rent and survive and became very bitter............the scam that university is..........the scam that America is...........

    My Daughter just got her Masters. She's in the same boat. She is talking about moving to Canada or Europe. Now that's sad.

    I'm not sure about Europe the job market is kinda low at the moment. About the same as in US. I went to Australia and i found heaps of work, even got asked a lot, and it's quite sunny. But Canada doesn't sound that bad tho!

    She needs work experience, that helps to get her on the job ladder.
    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.
