Awesome!

After I graduated with my bachelor's, I got a job where I was paid peanuts because most places I know of prefer to promote from within, and the best I could get was a position that was right below the managers. I did have a little 'authority,' but it was so depressing to see people with a lot less education than I making a lot better money. Even some of my managers had no degree; they had just been working there a couple years and were practiced at the art of brown nosing. While I was making more than minimum wage, I do know some college-educated people who make that. Back home you can make it on that--it's tight, but you can. Here...well, I doubt it.
