My Generation

Courtesy of Josh Landau: the 2011 Class of Georgetown Law, which is a Top 14 law school, has an 8.2 percent unemployment rate.  That's actually pretty good compared to how other people in other sectors are doing, but ...

8.2 percent of really smart, really obedient kids got really good GPAs in high school and college.

8.2 percent of kids did everything right, got into one of the elite institutions in America, survived the rigors and bullshit of graduate school.

8.2 percent of the most system system kids were told that their services were not needed.

And these are the ones that played by the rules.

If you're not mad, you're not paying attention.

  1. Another reason I'm grateful for the employment I have even if not EXACTLY what I want to do. It is damn close enough.
