Actually, I am not against higher education. It helps prime the students in their fields. But, to expect the world at your feet without any real experience, is insane. In any industry, you go through an initiation process. Like Dr's and such.
Now if you are talking of a Masters, or Doctorate degree with work experience.... Yes, you are entitled to a nice salary. |

What worries me is that the middle class has already taken a huge hit with the recession/depression now there are predictions of inflation or hyper-inflation for 2010 and beyond. I do no see how they can squeeze anymore out of us.
Type in inflation 2010 and there will be alot of articles to read. The day to day cost of living is expected to greatly increase. |

Who was talking about expecting the world at their feet for having a degree? |

Let me do some math for you, in 2006 when college students started getting denied jobs due to "experience" or "being to highly qualified" or any other meager explanation for why experience will get hired over book smarts; the cheapest college was the University of Nevada at about $3,500 a tuition. Now considering you want a bachelor's degree at the very least, you're looking at about four years; now we have $3,500x4 which equals $35,004 total...I don't think asking for at least $40,000 a year is such a problem, much less expecting the world at your feet.

Just make a boat and push it towards Cuba. Nothing productive to add to the conversation, don't add anything. I admit, I was being a smart-a$$. Here's a productive comment. If you are that miserable, and you despise the country that you live in: make a change. I'm not going to get into a debate of the how, when and wheres. You are intelligent and resourceful enough - make it happen. |

I got my son-in-law into driving a truck, four years ago.
He went to work for scheider trucking,,THEY got him his training and liecense and he was gone about three days a week,home four. He picked local driving..He stayed with them for a year,,then got on with Coke here in Indy,,,he's still there and makes in the 40,'s range for his year,,and home EVERYNIGHT...FACT,,I don't lie!! I have done this work for over thirty years,,YES there are some companies to watch out for, yes, your first year you might be gone a bit...but in THESE times of hardships in the work force. THATS not to much to give,,knowing you will have a job.... And as to your HARDEST JOB EVER DONE??? Damn man,,,I did ten years of house-hold moving with aLLIED vAN lINES,,we loaded and unloaded everythingwe hauled,,,now thats hard. driving down the highway,,all alone,,and NO BOSS OVER YOUR SHPULDER,,,is a EASY and GREAT relaxed job to do,,once you get use to it... I didn't say hardest, I said worst. Even when I had a job driving and was home every night I was still working as much as 18 hours a day. And that was a company owned by my cousin! Why bother having a home if you're never there? Just live in that prison cell they call a "walk in condo." My teeth are rotting because I never had a chance to brush them and EVERY driver I know has had this trouble. All you do is drive, sleep and wait on a loading dock. You like it? Good for you! But, I'd rather scrub toilets for $3 an hour. That's a less crap job. It also depends on where you are too. A family friend up in Michigan is seriously screwed with regards to trucking, because everyone learned to drive and no one's working now. He's not even having luck with out of state jobs. It's a good thing he'd bought his own cab years ago, because they'd be in worse shape if he still had to pay on it. Down here, a friends hubby drives two days a week for the company he's with. Lack of jobs hurt everyone. |
