I forget where, but I think there was a recent article in Newsweek about job prospects for the young in the present economy. As I recall, it seemed to say that their true earnings rate is likely to be lower than what Americans have expected in the past.
A friend of mine used to teach a course in sales at a University. He always said that it didn't matter what a student majored in because the majority would end up in sales in real life. He wasn't totally disinterested in saying this since he taught sales, but that's what he said.
Another guy said he wouldn't trade his experience waiting on tables for anything because he learned more from that job about how to deal with a variety of people than anything else.
