Real Job


It happened.  I finally got a real job.  It doesn't start for at least another month but it is for certain.  I wanted to cry when I found out. 

I graduated from Temple University in January 2010.  That means it's taken me almost two years to find a job that pays me over $10/hour for my many thousand-dollar burden in student loans.  I am not alone in my struggles.  A fact I keep hearing is how for the first time in history, student loan debt is surpassing credit card debt.  I hope we'll all be ok.

But I don't mean to darken a happy moment with sad facts.  I at last have a "real" job to call my own, and at least for a little while, I will be happy about it.
