The other option is to stay unemployed. So you have two very shitty options with one being slightly better than the other. As a result, this generation is pissed off at the fact the educational system told them, hey it's ok to take out loans, your invesment will pay off in the long run and it really didn't. I wonder what schools are telling their students today.

Thats a Rationale?
I cant work in my "major" so I wont work at all. Thats sounds like an excuse to be on umemployemet for 99 weeks to me. What about your bills, your students loans. Are just not gonna pay them since an unemployment check only goes so far? Gotta have net access, gotta have the new iphone so I can keep up on job prospects. I have heard that also.
How about working in that non major field and making some money and paying your bills. Then when the time comes you move up in the company or your find a job in your feild. I cant think of any HR person that would rather hire someone thats been on unemployemnt for 50+weeks over someone who has been working as an under employed college grad that has been paying his bills. Its called work ethic, get some!
SOunds like the arguements from the 99%ers. I think they need to branch out and form the 99weekers.
