[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] OK. I'll bite. I'm a gen xer in my mid-40s. What systemic barriers did you face that i didn't? [/quote] Multiple recessions[/quote] Gen Xer here who graduated college in a recession and spent years underwater on a condo during the Great Recession of 2008. I also had unpaid parental leave and had to pay 100% of my student loans even though I’ve spent my career in public service. [/quote] What recession did you graduate from college in? [/quote] Early 1990s was a huge recession with really terrible employment opportunities for recent college grads. I knew Ivy League grads working in retail for 1-2 years.[/quote] I graduated from college in 1991 and had my first job two days after graduation because I majored in biochemistry at a mid-level state school. We used to turn away Ivy League girls who had alumnae connections but really couldn't do anything useful. [/quote]
