A job for life? Wake up. There is no such thing. Why does everyone now
think that we are all "owed" something? Do you assume that you have some
inalienable right to a good job because you have an education? Unless you
have a professional degree, all an education gives you the ability to get
your foot in the door and shows that, AT THE LEAST, you can stick to a goal.
Don't be a slacker. If the mice figure out your trap, build a better one.
If you are not happy with your IT job, quit complaining about "the man" and
start your own company. Find a niche that is either not being done or is
not being done very well. Work 70 hrs a week, save all your profit, and
build your own future. Once you do this, you'll have a better understanding
why the jobs are exported to Bangalore. Hard work and entrepreneurship, my
boy, is what the U.S. was founded on.
