Take responsibility for your life and quit blaming others.

Funny- I would have thought that when a person:

I spent 16 years going to night school, working full time, playing by
the
rules,
married, kids. I have the highest tech education there is BSEE
embedded
systems development.
Also over 23 years experience in the engineering field.

they *were* taking a decent measure of responsibility for life.

When a law abiding citizen is mugged by a criminal, was the law abiding
citizen
"irresponsible"?

His is not the norm. **** happens. That is part of life. Accept it,
make
whatever changes you can so it does not happen again and move on.

Actually, his is pretty normal............far to many people jump into a
field because 'that is what everybody says to get into' . I saw the 'IT'
bust coming a couple of years before it happened, just like the 'mortgage'
business is on the verge right now. Too many people are looking for the
quick buck. and then whine to the guvmint when it doesn't work out.
