This is the worst time to graduate

“Only till sometime back I could have done anything to graduate on time, but now I am too scared to even think about my graduation day. Well qualified and experienced people are being laid-off almost everyday and hardly anyone is hiring at present. This recession has shattered my future along with economy” says, Sarah Tameer

Similar quotes are shared by many other university going students. There is a lot that one invests in ones degree along with money and time. By end of it you feel like you will crash but the one thing that helps you keep your strength,is the future job that one foresees .Once this beacon of hope seems to lose visibility, everything seems to collapse.

The fact that degree is not acquired for sake of future earning only and has a lot more to do with the knowledge that one gains through out this time, stands strong and valid. But then if you are not able to apply your knowledge practically, the chances of it getting rusted or it fading out increases.

So all who were planning to get employed can now take their binoculars and go for bird watching, to kill time till recession is over. Or the ones who are overly optimist can look for a job with same binoculars.
