On Young, Privileged, and Applying for Food Stamps

Oh, btw, the Army is always hiring young, intelligent, physically capable people to serve. Especially with a Sociology degree, you would fit right in with Civil Affairs...

On Young, Privileged, and Applying for Food Stamps

@C Eden Di Bianco@facebook Not that I think all people that live in NYC are hipsters...like Sinatra said, "if you can make it there, you can make it anywhere." I just have no desire and I'm ok with that...

On Young, Privileged, and Applying for Food Stamps

@C Eden Di Bianco@facebook There's a reason why I won't move to NYC even though I can make 3xs as much doing what I do there...it's because I don't want to pay for the standad of living. But then, I'm not a hipster. I like living like a king with my current salary as an engineer where I'm at. It allows me to do my hobby, like, oh I don't know...WRITING! without worrying about when my next paycheck will come...

I'm sorry but you got your degree in SOCIOLOGY. What did you think was going to happen? Maybe if you would have thought farther into the future, you would have gotten a degree in something USEFUL, like engineering, and you would have a job...a very nice paying one at that. College *was* the great equalizer for me and that's because I got my degree in a hard science. And I did it without parental help. I did it with an ROTC scholarship, student loans, and working 2 (sometimes 3) jobs. Go back to school and get a degree in Software Engineering. My company can't find enough software engineers to fill our open positions...
