[quote=Anonymous]The thing I thought was odd about the article is that while it was discussing careers/jobs “disappearing” today, many of the examples made it clear that the fields were already reducing in scope when the Gen-X subjects were in their mid-late 20’s/early 30’s. E.g., the guy who was working for Spin in the early 2000’s in NYC making $31K a year. Which would have been quite challenging to live on by then and he was in his early 30’s. My first real job in 1990 in the Midwest paid $22,500 and that was considered a pretty low salary. The article content seemed relevant in, say 2005-2010, not 2025. [/quote]
