So push has come to shove, and Mom and Pop have threatened to evict you from the basement if you don’t get at least a part-time job.
Well, here at Beezer University, we have a whole bulletin board set aside for our graduates who are looking for employment commensurate with their degrees. [Note to self: How many BU grads will know what “commensurate” means?]
Here are a few samples.
WORK WANTED–HONEYMOON CHAPERONE. Just because it’s your honeymoon doesn’t mean you should let Mr. Man get away with hanky-panky! Feminist Relationship Studies degree: I WILL KEEP HIM IN HIS PLACE.
WORK WANTED–PLAY DATE SUPERVISOR. Make sure your child understands Diversity! My degree in Advanced Chicano Physics gives me insight into childish minds! Salary negotiatable!
WORK WANTED–TOILET PAPER RECYCLING. Let me wash your toilet paper so you can use it again and again! Together we can Save the Planet! I have a seven-year Batcheler’s Degree in Saving The Planet Studies.
WORK WANTED–FOOD TASTER. You never knows when someone he is trying to poison you! That’s why you need a food taster. That’s why you need me! I am udderly fearless, I will taste anything. You’ll believe it when you see me! I come compleate with a degree in Superhero Studies.
Well, what are you waiting for? Just $20 will display your “Work Wanted” index card for a whole five days! And if you don’t have the cash, we make it easy for you to just tack it on to your outstanding student loan.
Yeah, this is the problem, well defined. The job market has not caught
up with the qualified graduates.
And here’s where it leads . . .

I have the feeling that all sorts of people are going to be defaulting on student loans in the future.
The “Survivor” show people came to my neck of the woods last week to interview those who want to be contestants on their next season. People lined up all day for two days. The interviews last one minute: “Tell us why you should be on the show.” That’s about all the time many of today’s college grads need to explain how they can be a benefit to the company they are applying for.
