I was surprised recently when a young man I know left a very high paying job in medical technology with a successful established company and found another job paying more money in two weeks.
Unfortunately, the average college graduate has nowhere near those prospects. Our economy must compete with China, India, and third world countries.
If anybody ever figures out a way to ship plugged toilets to India to get them unplugged, even plumbers will find it difficult to make a living in the U.S.
The technology job market is insane. If my company closed its doors today, I could literally be working at another firm by the end of the month. Maybe not an ideal position, but I’d have a paycheck.
Haha... on the plumber comment.
