    Those are definitely not “BS” majors. If you’re in the arts, hopefully you have a professor or adviser that can help you navigate the job/career path. No one likes a complainer, no matter what your job or major.

    Dumpster fire? Nice, you must not be a writing major either. Hope you have a job or hobby that makes you happy, other than being a frat boy.

    Great pep talk! Great Ted Talks that touches upon the 20-30 age group. “Why 30 is not the new 20” http://www.ted.com/talks/meg_jay_why_30_is_not_the_new_20.html

    Hey, some people need that cubicle/high paying job to simply pay off loans, create a secure financial future, or because that’s what they truly want to do, and there is absolutely nothing wrong with that. We cant all be artists and we certainly need accountants. Getting a job climbing the corporate ladder isn’t necessarily easy.

    Others follow their “dream” (hello fellow arts majors) to paint, sculpt, write, make films, etc. and I’ll tell you from experience, that isn’t an easy road. At the end of the day, however, hopefully you are enjoying the work you do or you take the time after work to have a fulfilling hobby.

    How sad that these young people identify as being miserable. Hey folks, it is most definitely not idealistic to want to be happy. Make educated decisions, know yourself, and don’t ever settle when it comes to your happiness.
