When they talked about the skill shortage part, that's God's honest truth man cmon...you exit university, you have NO SKILLS, you are UN-HIRABLE. It's as true as 2 + 2 = 4. If I had to base my evaluation of whether or not the Watchtower is the word of God on that one phrase alone, I would be a witness...

And who is the big criminal buying 70M$ particle accelerators and building new science department buildings with graduates' money? The Universities. The jobless makers. SATAN.

Before I registered into my program, I asked the University advisor about the opportunities. She said, I will get a job in the field upon graduating. I graduated, got fuckall. A BIG fuckall.

I wouldn't agree that you are unhirable when you exit a university. If that were the case, no one would waste their time with a university. You can develop skills while your at university by doing interships and research.

Also, most of the university's money does not come from tuition fees.

I know the job market sucks, and it sucks more if you don't have any skills. However, it is not completely the fault of the university (unless you went to an overpriced community college). Universities have lots of resources that many students don't use.

Like what? I'll give you an example so you understand. I went into an interview with a 55 y.o. lady and she asked me if I know how to prepare and deliver power point presentations. I told her I was an expert, and that I had prepared and delivered over 100 presentations in ppt, many of which were animated, many of which contained VBA code or macros, many of which were considered the best presentations the group has made.

She stared at me in disbelief saying "ohh....hmm...and where have you acquired this skill?...in university...hhhhmmmm...I see"

What she was thinking was, Ohhh! I spend 15 years at the government, I done maybe...30 ppt presentations, I have acquired this skill legitimately, through hard work, and here's this idiot comming out of school, who got his skills unlegitimately...you know...he stole the skills and avoided jail time...and he DARES to claim he has skills, LIKE I HAVE SKILLS!!!! WOOOW!!! School! It's not real powerpoint they teach in school...it's toy powerpoint!

And I thought like ok...I mean...is this how you want to play this game? And I played their sick game, I went like ok, I'm a new graduate, I don't got many skills but I'm a quick learner, I'm interested, highly motivated: I am whatever crap you want me to be, for the time being. And this attitude brought me a lot of success lately, than to claim I have a skill as a graduate.

Like, have you actually gone out there to get a real job and market your university skills? Do you know what cunts and cocksuckers are out there? A 75 y.o. member of the executive cometee of **** association almost had a heart attack at our table in a meeting when he was mentioning how graduates dared to claim they had any skills at all...he was red in the face and was breathing heavily, and he was having a fucking heart attack. These are the babyboomer cocksuckers to whom you have to market your university skills!

They are mad, wicked, angry, irritable and disrespectful. They think it's ALL about them. They got old and lived NOTHING so far. NOTHING. But, what they can do is laugh at Rob Ford whenever he gets on TV for taking cocaine...as if their life was the utter essence of joy and well being.
