But you’re also coming into the world of job hunting, endless cover letters that make you “stand out” from the crowd, and getting recruiter calls from companies you’d never want to work for.

You’re getting calls that sound spammy. At first you think it might be your big break. But then you realize it’s just a sales job, or based on commission. More Jennifer Lawrence moments can be seen at Huffington Post.

You’ve developed a drinking problem due to lack of job offers. It’s OK, young one – Cup of Noodles is always $8.01 for a 24-pack at Costco.
