Liquor Dealer: although your statement isn't true for *everyone*, it does apply to most people.

Take me, for instance: I graduated from university about two years ago, and am a Master of Science, well versed in the ways of logistics, mathematics and programming. I spend 18 months looking for a good job (=unemployed), and finally got a job as computer salesman about 1.5 months ago. That is a far cry from what I wanted to do, or what I was trained to do. I had expected to get about 1800 Euros a month, but now earn 1350. But at least I have a job... There are reports of university graduates working as cleaning ladies/men, so I can't say I'm in a terrible condition either.
