So PLEASE, don't throw me into the mix of uneducated, lazy, ignorant, moronic people who are lucky to have high school diplomas and a job!
When you countenance them, you become a part of them.
As for pilots, financial consultants, etc. working for TSA.....yeah right, you've got to be kidding me. The economy might have been bad, but a financial consultant HAS to have been able to get a better job. That's like telling me someone with a JD from Harvard will now go choose to become a paralegal at The Law Offices of Joe Schmoe.
You DO have a BA in something marketable. That's great. But you're underemployed. You might as well be unemployed. There's got to be a better paying job. Even a legal secretary makes more than a luggage screener.
