Yeah and when I get turned down for a minimum wage job, I guess I’ll have to chalk it up to an ‘entitlement’ mentality?

I’ve been working my butt off since I was 15. No student loan, paid off my school by working and saving.

I think I have a right to complain that there are no opportunities out there. I didn’t vote for the O, and I know plenty of the boomers who did.

You can complain all that you want, but blaming boomers is not going to get you a job. That was the point of my reaction to the topic. I do not know you, but I suspect that if you look at the decisions that you have made and are making, you made a bad decision along the way. Many students make the mistake of majoring in subjects that are not attractive for employment. The days of just having a degree is not going to cut it. Again, I do not know your situation, but there are plenty of jobs available; however, you may have to be willing to start from the bottom and move to find them.
