Everyone on here bashing these guys don’t realize that there’s not a whole lot of jobs out there. I picture a lot of retired old men and ladies on FR getting their SS money and sitting back and thinking even a good degree and experience means much anymore in this economy.

They are whistling past the graveyard in their ivory towers and it’s disgusting.

Here in the oil patch, newly minted petroleum engineering graduates are getting $100k per year. Landmen are getting $85k.

These "strikers" are the ones who don't realize it. Times are hard, tighten the belt.
