I'm going to call my accountant and see if I'm above that goal....or below it. Could go either way, depending.  |
Pretty much. Somehow a long the line I think somehow our jobs were portrayed as "cool" and we got flooded. Blame MTV, blame VH-1, blame the mBox. Whatever. Somehow the qualifications you had mentioned are pretty much seemingly the baseline now for having any sense of job security in this industry.
It's not good when you can't get a job with 3-5 years of pretty solid experience and a BS.... and that's not even mentioning pay. That's just having ANY consideration for a job, anywhere.
It does suck, but if you're good then it can still be good. I'm not bummed about it.
