    For me it means being pissed off because I cant afford to move out, get married, go on a vacation, or even keep my car decent.


    yeah, but the point that you know that you want those things makes that all the more near for you. Like I said about knowing I want to go forward in my life; it shows that I am aware of what is out there and yet clear on what I have already.

    please don't take that as a pass off response. I know it sucks to be waiting; I have been there and will be again I am sure. but in the meantime, you know that when you do get there; AND YOU WILL you will taste it all the more sweeter.

    I'm just finished college, yet to get a real job. still half-assing along with the 2 PT jobs ive had for years, small debt that i need to clear......

    but instead of sorting my life out im going away next week to drive around France and walk around Spain. (low cost, maximum fun)

    My priorities are keeping me poor though


    yeah, ditto for me about the priorities. although i am heading back to school in august to work on my master's. so my debt is about to go through the roof. my savings account is rapidly dwindling because the job i have doesn't pay me enough:( oh well. at least i got to see PJ in DC :)

    Lately yes, the job site I use adds maybe like 1 or 2 jobs a day it seems like and that does not always mean that I have the qualifications for them. Basically anything that involves sales is not doing well right now. Should have gone to school to become a male nurse like Focker.

    i am poor. no job. bad career prospect. lifeless existence.
    I have faced it, A life wasted...

    Take my hand, my child of love
    Come step inside my tears
    Swim the magic ocean,
    I've been crying all these years

    hehe. hopefully your masters will lead to an ability to demand higher salary.
    thats not a bad priority, its a long term investment.

    Ditto. Been unemployed "technically" for 13 months but have done some odd jobs. Massive credit card debt and they are now frozen cause I can't make the minimum payments. Can't pay rent and got an eviction notice back in June. Things are rough for alot of people. I have a job offer but they won't pay the legal fees for the work visa... in a bind cause I don't have the $2,500 to pay for it. Shit happens and you just have to roll with it. Things have a way of sorting themselves out and I am responsible for the predicament I find myself in... I made the decision to try NYC, knowing it would be hard, but sometimes you just have to jump... I don't want to regret not trying.
