1. Your education, whatever it is will not get you a job. It can keep a door from slamming in your face. Dependence on education to insure a good future is idolatry.
2. What you have skills and abilities in is the thing people hire. Your diploma only says you can learn and can do your homework.
3. A degree doesn't mean you can do anything, it only means you have some capacity to pass tests.
4. We are about to go thru a great change in the workforce. Many many many more will be unemployed soon. That will mean only those with something they know how to do better than someone else that someone will pay you for matters.
5. The idea of a "JOB" is becoming obsolete. Every person, no matter who they are, no matter what they do has become an independent contractor, an entrepreneur. Using "Job" security as a crutch is like a burger joint thinking they have customer security.
6. Pensions and government support are about to evaporate. People who trusted in them will find themselves hungry, cold and homeless. The money is running out.
7. Find an escape clause. You must quickly assess your abilities and talents and begin to find someone to "Buy" them. That may be a menial job that becomes publicity for a step up, but you will always be on display from this day forward.
You have now been warned.
