In the Rear with a Gear

In school I studied computer programming, bookkeeping, philosophy and writing. I thought that in the business world I'd be in the rear with a gear. Now that I realize they have no intention of keeping me gainfully employed there, I find myself pursuing internships as a means to a "poor man's MBA." There must be a lot of people in that boat. I hope it doesn't sink.

I had another vision when I was young -- Walden. That still has its appeal. But I spent seven years doing my best Walden and I know I'd need to do it differently next time.
