Um sorry, but you're very judgemental sounding tbh

[(Anonymous)]

UM SORRY but telling people that whatever they're doing is just fine and dandy doesn't do them any good TBH.

[(Anonymous)]

'Tough love' never worked with me, personally. All I hear from the person dispensing it is ''Let me show you how I'm SUPERIOR to you!''

[(Anonymous)]

Pretty much.

[(Anonymous)]

You seem angry. Tbh.

[(Anonymous)]

You know what? I am. I'm angry because I feel like my generation is going to end up completely fucked between the baby boomers who will age in a giant avalanche and the millenials who seem to, in frighteningly large numbers, believe that they're too special, too screwed up, too *fragile* to work like regular people. And most people I know in their 30s and 40s feel this way too. Dear 20-somethings: you are not special, suck it up.

You realize that, there's like an economical crisis going on and it's uch harder to actually FIND a decent job even if you want to work (unlike our parent's generation.

Yeah, I'm sure you can find SOME work - but going to work at burger king if you have a degree, will often make it even worse, because it will look tragically bad on your CV when you do try to get a job that matches your qualifications.

[(Anonymous)]

That belief right there--that taking a menial job is beneath you because WOW you got a degree--is a major problem. When I look at resumes, not working at all is the worst thing, the biggest red flag that there's something WRONG with the applicant. Jobs that are irrelevant to the degree or field show that the person is practical and not full of themselves and willing to do what needs to be done. The worst people to deal with are people who have no real idea what they're doing but thing that because they have X Degree they're owed a particular kind of position and salary.

[kallanda_lee]

Ehm, when did I say anything about it being "beneath me".

And I say this as someone with two degrees who's done jobs like being a museum guard and did date input that a well-trained monkey could do. Trust me, I have worked jobs way below my qualification.

It's not about it being beneath you - it's about it ruining your chances of actually getting a job you aspire/you're trained for.

You have a very specific specific way of looking at resumés (and I agree, theoretically the willingness to work diverse jobs SHOULD be seen as an advantage) but in the absolute majority of cases this doesn't happen.

I know of job agencies that will not even pass on your CV if you have a lot of short term jobs because they label you as a "job hopper" and therefore unreliable. I know this through a girl who actually worked there.

I've actually been negatively addressed about this in actual job interviews. So really, I WISH potential employers thought like you, but in the absolute majority of my experience, they don't.

You do realise that the current recession and aging baby-boomer situation is fucking up generation Y just as much as generation X. People just starting out now have to cope with a global wide recession, at least when you (age 30 - 40s) graduated from college there was no recession. So whats your fucking excuse?
