Once you step into the “real world,” you soon realize how difficult it can be to acquire a job. Notice that I didn’t say find a job. Heck, anyone can find a job; there are tons of them to sort through. The trick is actually getting hired over everyone else. This was my reality after I finished college. For some bizarre reason I thought I could enter the work-force with guns blazing. There was no stopping me, for I was college degree man. That certificate was going to get me a stellar career. Haa, life doesn’t work exactly this way. In reality there are plenty of college graduates out there for employers to choose from. So I looked and looked until I finally obtained my first writing position.
