I am an idiot

For all those recent college grads, I write in camaraderie with you.

I am an idiot.

I completely missed the job fairs that swept through campus, I didn't notice when all of my friends had found jobs, and now...I am living in a toolshed across from the Stanford golfcourse, living off of free food sneakily filched from grad student BBQs. Is this really my life?

I have been looking for jobs--quite a bit actually. But I haven't found any yet that let me be creative, take a long lunch, pay me a ton of money, and have "fast track to upper management" written all over them. I'm joking of course...sort of. Sigh.

The worst part is that in May, I did the unthinkable: I said no to a job at Google. I know. I am an idiot (refer back to title post). Who says no to Google? Well, besides idiots. Ugh. I am now too frustrated to tell this story. To be continued.
