<p>[QUOTE="Paddy54, post: 753681, member: 19250"]I beg to differ depending on where you lived you might find a job durring the mid 70's. And a job in your field was a prime find! I do agree that yes I feel as you do about the kids who graduate today having a harder time finding a job. I also agree with the fact that the U.S. no longer makes anything..... your right most jobs have been shipped over seas. Just try finding a toy for a kid this Christmas not made in China or that does not have lead in it. I would hope that we both could agree on this ...as everything is relevent to the time peroid. My parents came up in the depression..... my mom worked for 4 lawyers and made $4 @ week true the dollar was worth a dollar.My dad quit HS to take a job with the Federal Reserve Bank and later finished HS and some college at night. But again things were different as the times were different. I was lucky too as I did hold a job all the way through college...and worked for that company for 34 year retired and I am still working......in a field that I did not choose but was one that put money in my pocket and a roof over my head!....looking back I'm glad I did. Not many people these days can say they have worked for a company for over 30 years! And you can bet that the kids today will not be able to retire with income comming in from a pension fund from the company they worked for. No I did not have to cut fire wood or walk up hill 7 miles to and from school! I did however exceed my friends in income both durring college and afterwards for at least 5 years! Like I said I was lucky....I hope and wish for the same luck for the class of 2010 and all the classes to follow.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
