A minor rant and a Web site full of them

I have a new favorite Web site. http://www.angryjournalist.com/

Read long enough and the funny disappears. It'll just make you sad.

I did find this, Post #1539: I'm angry it's taking so damn long to get a job outside the industry.

I'm having the same experience. Seriously, all throughout college and my first news job, I kept hearing how easy it would be to transition into PR, advertising or marketing. As long as you can write well, you'll be able to find a good job, I was told. Over and over. That hasn't been the case. I was surprised at first, but with the economy going down the crapper combined with the fact that I'm currently living in a wasteland, I know I shouldn't be. I know I'll have to drive 45 minutes for a decent job and that's OK.

Then there's this: Angry Journalist #1516: We are going through the second round of buyouts, and people are coming out the front office in tears. I am in such dispair over the state of our industry, I could spit.

Me, too. And that's why I'm trying to figure out what to do with the rest of my life. I'm not going to rely on an incredibly shrinking business for work. One of my main objectives is learning everything I can about the Web. The last place I was unfortunate enough to work was a technological void so I'm catching up first with what I knew before I set foot in that place.

Finally, there's this:

Angry Journalist #1513:
I continually debate whether I have the best job in the world or the worst.I work for a small, independent magazine publisher. The publisher also acts as editor-in-chief, although he knows nothing about journalism.My job associate editor is not defined, and when I take initiative on projects, the publisher always shuts them down.I have no responsibilities. I basically surf the internet all day. I get paid.But I am not challenged in any way. I am not appreciated. I fear my skills are erroding.

I didn't post this, but I could have. It pretty much sums up my last job experience.
