What is the point of this blog?
I am a recent graduate who cannot get a job. I'm not the only one and it's not just graduates who are suffering. The economic climate of the last couple of years has seen people from all industries lose their jobs as cuts are made.
In this blog I will be discussing news pieces that catch my eye. This news could relate to anything. Politics, International Affairs, Current Events, Entertainment. All of these and more will be discussed by yours truly.
Why me? Well, why not? We get views from the 'experts' all the time. Why not get a different view? The View of an Unemployed Graduate.
"The world is your oyster."
That's a phrase a lot of us have heard over the years. Who can't help but believe that saying. Grab the opportunities that are given to you with both hands and you can be successful beyond your wildest dreams. Unfortunately, no one tells you about the rest of the world trying to do exactly the same and take those same opportunities.
The truth is the world is not your oyster, it's everyone's. You may or may not be successful regardless of how much work you put in. The world is a complicated mess of social circles, relationships, deals, favours and if you have no direct connection to any of the big ones, making an impact is going to be tough.
I know this opening post may be a bit of a ramble with no real central point but hey, that's life.
