I am finishing two undergrad degrees in university right now. When I started post-secondary, I was expecting a similar opportunity. Now I realize that isn't the case, and I'll pretty much be making in April what I currently make right now.

Unfortunately alot of university and post-secondary students don't realize how humbling it all becomes when they hit the real world. I see all these freshmen running around telling their family and friends how they expect big things from their workplace and how it will adjust to their needs. Boy, are they in for a surprise...

God bless the HSB and the castles in the air they build.
