This is a blog where I will post about my experiences with being autistic. I invite others to do the same as well as ask me any questions or for advice. PLEASE ADD YOURSELF AS A FOLLOWER! :)

AMEN!!! I went back to school to get my MA and I'm still stuck in a data entry position. I've been working customer service/data entry since I was 16 - and I will be turning 50 this year! I like a challenge - this is ridiculous!
ReplyDeleteI'm getting a Master's in a program that basically guarantees 95% of students job in 3 months and I still won't take loans out do to this fear. I basically went broke after college because I barely worked over minimum wage until 8 months ago, when I graduated in 2015. Still working 30 hours a week with full time school so I don't have debt as a backup. I wish it didn't have to be this way.
