You know I thought that graduating from college would be really cool.
That doors would have opened up for me and i would have opportunities
that no one in my family has had because I am the first one to go and
graduate from college.

However, I have noticed that I have not had all of the success that i
had dreamed about. I have been hitting the pavement hard trying to find
a job here and it has been three hard weeks and six tanks of gas.

But you know what sucks the most???

I have been living on my own for the past four years and since I just
graduated I don't have the money to be independent and so I have to move
back in with my family. I am not used to this and it stinks because I
have to abide by their own rules and we live in the middle of no where
and so I really don't have a lot to do , and there are really no people
my age out here...

So I just wanted to rant and see if anyone had been in this situation
before and how to deal with it, or if there was anyone that lived/ lives
in the Parker area that can tell me where I can get in to some trouble
;-)

Thanks;
Lantz

You don't have to live with your folks. There is always some kind of
job to earn board & room. Maybe you should look at you attitude a
little harder. I get the feeling you think because you went to college,
you DESERVE a certain kind of job. I would ask that you go out & EARN
that job. Sorry life is so tough, but I GUARANTEE you will find it gets
even TOUGHER.

YOU GET WHAT YOU EARN; NOTHING MORE.

Something they don't teach in college.

Yeah I need a job before I can go and move out again... And like I said
i have been hitting the job market hard...

I was not born with a silver spoon in my mouth, I have had to fight for
everything that I have in life and moving out is no different I am just
going to have to keep the axe to the grind stone more....
