My first entry into my journal and it has to deal with *SURPRISE* getting a tech job. Not that I'm bitter or anything. I already have a tech job. Its just that its only 23 hours a week in the public school system, and they NEVER expand positions into full-time once they've reduced the hours.

Oh to be a new grad in 1999. I'd probably be making $60K, rollin' in my Benz and pimpin the hoes. And then it would come to an abrupt halt a year later and I'd be on my ass unable to make my student loan payments.

So I guess my question is this: Is it better to have pimped and lost everything, or never to have pimped at all? I'm fairly certain its better to never have pimped than to have lost it all. I mean really, I don't think I could sit here and help teachers everyday with their web browser, email virus and MS Word problems if I used to drive a luxury car and bang a 20 yr. old college cheer leader.
