Something's going on!
I come by the site, just to see the new counter, and guess what? I've had a surge of new visitors! Well, if you're new to the site, welcome! Come back often! I might even say something funny.
So here I am, delighted. And somewhat amused because I think that the reason for all of the traffic is from my mention of "Britney's Bush". No. It's not that simple. Someone mentioned my blog on Monster.com's networking site. The link everyone is apparently interested in is here where I rant about being lied to with respect to the "need" for a degree and/or the value of a degree in today's economy. Go read it, if you haven't yet.
The amusing part is that in hindsight, I think I was just a little bitter. I'm saying that basically bachelor's degrees are mostly irrelevant in today's workforce, but it took me almost 4 years to find full time employment. Ironic, or just dumb? You decide. Either way, I still don't have a degree, but I do have a well paying job. Moreover, I got the job because of experience I have from a job I had 10 years ago. I think my first statement stands (if you can jump through all the tenses).
Regardless. I'm going to spend some time changing the look/feel/functionality of this blog. I haven't looked at the blogger templates in a while, and this one is starting to bore me. Besides, I'd like to be able to put pictures up and have people put in comments if they feel like doing that.
More later, I supposed.
