We sure have a bunch of Nelsons on Freep. You know the kid from the Simpsons always going “Ha Ha’ at others misfortunes.
We have more people and not enough jobs. What someone did 20 years ago to get by and eventually thrive doesn’t always cut it any longer. I know i got a job interning in a business i had no background for 35 years ago. I’m still doing the same thing. Today only someone with a degree in business can get that intern position. At a larger firm its a masters or don’t apply.
Instead of mocking people and immediately saying oh they must be a liberal either outright or by inference we’d be better served recognizing the game has changed and what worked in the past is no longer applicable, at least much less so.
I for one would rather discuss solutions than to stand back and mock. It’s not like conservative politicians don’t either read sites like this or have someone do it for them and gauge the temperature of the base. We can make a difference outside of the voting booth.

Did I force him to go to law school and spend all that money on tuition? He thought he was going to have it made in the shade until the 2X4 of reality hit him upside the head. I’ve done jobs that were probably “beneath me” but I didn’t look at it that way, I looked on it as a blessing that I could feed and clothe my family. Now I’m disabled and can’t do a “go to the office” type of job for 100 different reasons. At least he has a job.

“Law School Grad Forced Into Retail Job Blogs The Loss Of His ‘Last Shred Of Dignity”.....

What a pompas ass hat. He/she needs to get a real job before trying to bilk anyone out of their hard earned money instead of not doing a good job of representing his clients. A dose of “real life” might make a real difference in how they see their clients instead of how they can steal what they have.

You are correct, the market for jobs has changed and it is wrong to mock those suffering from it. It is wise to learn from it to help others and yourself.

Jobs aren't created in a "jobs factory". They are created by people who wish to make a profit from the labor of others. This bozo would-be lawyer feels it is beneath him to pick up broken glass.

There are few companies whose primary function is to pick up broken glass. On the rare occasion when broken glass is to be picked up, just who, exactly, should be assigned the task? It certainly wouldn't make sense to hire an employee just for picking up glass if the need arises so seldom.

Any employer in his right mind is going to assign such a menial task to some employee based on a perception of how to maximize the profits of the business. The attitude of the "lawyer" will assure that he is not considered for advancement.
