Burke,

It is very hard to get ahead in this world when no one will give you your first shot. Let’s take a basic example: Jeremy Lin. He was cut from team after team, no one wanted him and wouldn’t give him a shot but he continued to practice and hone his skills until finally someone gave him a shot and he proved that he could produce. If no one had given him that first shot, he never would have been able to SHOW he could produce even though he KNEW he could.

It’s similar to my position in that I know I can perform in an entry level job but no one wants to give me that first shot. It seems Breck is in a similar position.

We can’t help the economy we’re given my friend.

Help yourselves first.

All fire in the mind and no grease on the elbow just burns down the village, again.

Stop whining and go BUILD something.
