My moms happy Im home. She gave me her room, and my sister has the other bedroom. She sleeps on the couch. My mom likes having us around: She cooks all the time and bakes all the time, and right now shes making dinner, and she is really supportive. Shes helping me find a class where I can learn how to do Adobe Creative Suite and get certified so I can get a job that makes real money. Shes also newly unemployed, so she likes to cook and stuff to keep busy.
thats a pretty specific area and why its 6 figures. we just went through upgrading to syteline 9 last year.
My girlfriend was not so lucky. She has BA in Anthropology and Master's in teaching and she also has special ed endorsement. Yet, she still works as a teaching assistant at $12 an hour because she can't find anything better. There is nothing out there for her.
Majoring in Anthropology was her mistake. Apparently in order to teach at the lower levels you need to major in Elementary Education and in the higher levels a major relevant to what you would be teaching (English, History, Math, etc). Having neither would make getting a teaching job really difficult these days.
AFAIK the actual major doesn't matter as long as you have the certification. Nobody ever tells her why she is not getting the jobs she is interviewing for, but she thinks it's because of her Master's degree she had to do to get the teaching certificate and that makes her too expensive. She may have made a mistake, but if that was a mistake, it's the one that is very difficult if not impossible to correct and she's not alone in that. You can pin the blame all you want, but the fact is, it's a lot more difficult for millenials to get a start on their lives. That includes those with teaching degrees. With the states clamping down on education spending made it 100x more difficult to get a teaching job. The year she did her teaching internship (or whatever they call it) was the year when the schools started laying off people en masse and when every single teacher in the school she was interning started wearing pink ribbons so show support for those laid off. Sigh...
This thread makes me sad when we still can't find people for my line of work. The starting salary with 3 years of experience is six figures, with full benefits and incentives, and 45 hour work weeks.
There is a thing called internships and sucking your boss' cock under his desk. That's the real way of getting hands-on experience.

HOW THE FUCK DO I GET EXPERIENCE IF YOU WONT GIVE ME ANY?
I've actually been looking into becoming a teacher. My impression is that majoring in English is the most desirable in that leaves the most teaching opportunities open (i.e. grade ranges).
Right now, my impression is that the most directly unemployable majors (with just undergrad) are the most preferred for teaching... "Academic" majors are preferred/required. Huh?
I think I might qualify for teaching two majors that are science/math related, but I want to do social studies...
I have 4 friends that are teachers, 2 miraculously got employed and 2 are constantly searching for work. that shit is rough.
Social skills
Looks
Who you know
What you know
In that order.
Epic Fail if you graduate from Loyola University and your bagging groceries right next to the highschool dropout.
Internships in the post-crisis world, at least in finance, have become far more rare. Part of that is the notion that they *HAVE* to be paid, and paid reasonably well. Because of that companies are a lot less likely to hire them. I told my boss repeatedly I'd like to have one over the summer since I have a lot of data-grunt work to do, but we couldn't get one due to budgetary reasons.
All part of the same old "stretch the existing workers" ploy companies are doing.

Jeremy Lin graduated from Harvard and had to work as a guard at night.
It depends on your state but a lot of states have made it pretty hard for new teachers to find jobs. From our own personal experience Math seems to be the more in demand certification, at least at the HS level. My wife has two certifications and even when she interviews for her primary they always ask if she would be willing to teach math

If you're serious, the first step is to get a couple of small certifications (like an A+ or maybe Network+) and then work on a help desk or as a desktop support tech somewhere. From that spot, work your way up to a server/network engineer position to get more experience, and from there, specialize in a specific area and go the consulting route.
