Even so the in this economy the careers listed are almost impossible to get. Of course I'm in California where any job is impossible to even get an interview with right now. I'm glad I earned my BA even though it has not done me any good as far as getting the "dream job." Things are beyond hard out there. Right now I'm planning on leaving the country to work. Had no luck in the US yet I've gotten job offers out of the country. So, I'm going. Yes, I’d rather kill myself than do any of the above jobs listed.

I'm laughing out loud at how simple this article makes acquiring these gigs sound. The truth is that most of these jobs require an unlikely combination of superhuman charisma, profound luck, deep connections and timing to materialize for the average liberal arts grad. "start in an entry level position and work your way up into middle management" is about as simplistic as telling someone "it's easy to get into Harvard Law School, just pull off a 4.0 GPA from a highly regarded college, score in the top 2% of LSAT test takers and make some room in your life to seem passionate about something other than studying".

Lame. Except the problem is, someone who has some type of Liberal Arts degree most likely isn’t going to be interested in any of these boring careers… so this article is pretty much useless.
