Career Services: Hang In There, Baby!

Hooray, we have some additions to our growing dossier of noninspirational career advice! Via the New York Times this weekend: "All Is Not Lost for the Class of 2009."  And via our very own Claire Kleiger of Career Services last week: "It's tough but hang in there."  One of the great listserv e-mail headlines of its time, no?  But read on, because it gets worse.  Like telling us to take comfort in a broadway musical about puppets worse: "I leave you with another potential personal theme song from Avenue Q (can you tell it’s one of my favorite musicals?), 'For Now,' about a recent college grad from an ivy league institution struggling to figure out what to do with his life (sound familiar?). And, as the song says, remember that this poor economy is also 'only for now.'" Oh, Career Services...thanks for that.
