one of the saddest moments of my day, and life in general

is that once a day I go “OH MAN I COULD TOTALLY GO FOR A BURGER AND A BEER RIGHT NOW, WHO CAN COME WITH ME?!” and I look over to my buddy list on AIM, Gchat, and Facebook and scan for friends to invite out and the only people I know who’d say “yes” are a million miles away.

I hate you all.

my Brooklyn story this week

I’ve taken just about every train and been to every Brooklyn neighborhood I thought I’d never see.

I’ve also spent entirely WAY too long riding said trains to see said neighborhoods.

and not by choice.

and for those of you who are thinking of moving here and are like “AWESOME I GET TO RIDE SUBWAYS?! AND DON’T NEED A CAR?!” - shut up. because it’s not awesome. it’s stupid to go to a neighborhood that would be a 13min car ride but instead is a 2hr RT by subway, and when you look on the map it’s a basic zigzag.

but hey, at least I got to learn a new subway line, right!

hear me out

I know I’m going around advocating this whole HEY BE A FREELANCER AND START YOUR OWN COMPANY thing but when you sign into your bank account and there $0 in your checking, a credit card bill over $1000 and $85 in your savings, MAYBE its time to rethink priorities here, and kick your clients in the balls.

so ya know, I think it’s time I settle for a part-time job and sacrifice sleeping in for a bit so I can actually afford to live a little.

“A generation ago, despite high unemployment, it was almost unheard of to intern after graduation. But college students today have become so comfortable — and employers so enamored — with the concept of the no pay/low pay internship undertaken for college credit or in lieu of a summer job that it has spilled over into the entry-level job market. The post-graduate internship has, in many cases, replaced the entry level job, which is creating a ripple effect across the entire marketplace. The fact is, the job market has been flooded with a pool of highly educated and very cheap labor. Then we should step back and ask what happens to the job market when a highly educated segment of the population makes itself available to work for little or no pay. How much of a contributing factor to current unemployment is the fact that corporate America is capitalizing on the large group of well-educated, often debt-straddled job seekers willing — or systemically forced — to “intern” before they can get “real” jobs? And what happens to those who simply can’t afford to play the game? This phenomenon is creating a sociological exclusion — a restrictive financial gate — for lower and middle-income parents and their newly graduated children. If the corporate climate is such that a segment of highly educated, upper middle class, entry-level workers are willing to work for free or a stipend in order to be competitively qualified for a “real” job down the road, then how can the rest of the workforce compete to put food on the table, pay down debt and support themselves and their families?”
