[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Weird! You have to be a millennial. I don't mean that as a pejorative but rather you were told all those things. I am a GenXer and was told the best I could hope for was an Associates degree from a Community College and a job as a secretary. My parents expected me to go to college but the details were up to me.

I think it is really damaging to "oversell" life. We all can't be rockstars. Most of life is really boring. My DH is well known in his field and has been on a magazine cover but he hates his job.[b] Jobs are usually boring!![/b] Whether you're a big shot or a worker bee. Being an adult isn't sexy and exciting most of the time. Sorry. You need to find something that makes you happy. Travel? Art? Parties? Hiking? And do it. Life is what you make it.[/quote]

Disagree 100%

The fact that you feel this way says way more about you than anyone else or the workplace in general. If you don't like your job, do something about it.

^ I guess this is what happens when you're brought up to expect that a community college degree is the best you can hope for  :roll: [/quote]
