Graduation/Jobless/Sad - Nina182B - 05-19-2004
So I just graduated from college. I'm going back home next monday, don't have a job yet. I guess everything will work out eventually, still I feel like I'm in a rut. Seems like everyone I know has got some plan already. I don't like staying at home without feeling like I did something for the day. Actually, I'm pretty worried about how I'm gonna pay for all the anime I've been racking up on my credit card
Plus I'm worried I'll hate my first "real" job *sigh*

-HAHAHA! Thanks, that's so funny.. It really cheered me up
I wasn't really thinking anybody could help me. Just wanted to bitch and moan. Everyone always made fun of my major... It's MIS (Management Information Systems) and everyone calls it MISS. I'm looking for some sort of analyst job or consulting job. I can't wait to get back home and look for something in NYC.. I go to school in the midwest and no one from the east comes here to recruit! Made me wish I should have just gone to school back home.Your job sounds tough... It can be pretty nerve racking managing people, especially trying to make them all happy.. heck, trying to make them do work! At least you'll be getting paid more if they're making you manage people, right!

One suggestion I have is stop using your credit card. They are the devil in plastic form.

And thats why I decided screw that, and went with the straight to grad school in the fall approach. Graduate undergrad in T-11 days.

What store do you work for? How long you been there? Sounds to me like a good opertiunity. Take advantage of it if you play your cards right you could make a good job out of it and become a district manager they make good money.

I like my credit card had it for about 2 years now never had a problem with it. Nor have I ever paid interest on it. As long as you pay the full bill by the time you recive it you won't get an interest charge. Witch means you only pay for what you spend on it no more. It's just grate in my opinion. Hell i used it so much that I wore it out before it expired and sent in for a replacment card. :-)

He works at Hollywood Video.
Hey boy, if they don't pay you extra to manage the store, don't bother.
you are only working there temporarily until you go back to school, u don't need to take up more responsibility if they don't pay you more. :p 
I'll pm you later abt the dvds. I havn't decided if I want to part with them or not.

Somewhere around 60% of the people graduate with a B.S/B.A degree from college dont' get a job for about 2 years and even then it is the same if you didn't have a degree as far as pay goes. Just gather up some loan papers and go for a masters cause now everybody wants someone with a masters since they hire then for beans cause of bad economy. That is what sucks about America sometimes.

If you are planning to go to grad school, mind as well go all the way and get a doctoral degree. When you just stop at master's, you still apply for same jobs that you would with a bachelors degree. Often, companies prefer to hire a BS instead of MS because they dont have to pay as much. With a doctoral degree, things change. It opens up opportunities that you wouldn't otherwise have (like becoming a college professor or research director).

Not sure if that was aimed at me... but I guess thats more or less what I'm going to school for, a doctoral of sorts. Going to veterinary school in the fall, spend the rest of my life fixin and playin with the animals.
