Young Underpaid Professionals

Posted by Rio S.

We are young and possibly too stubborn to listen to old people, but when we are going about our way (career-wise and real life-wise) like toddlers learning how to walk – bumping into furniture and having our rear ends contact the floor in painful ways – we’re going to need a walker. To avoid impersonating a drunken sailor on a ship deck during a storm, we’re going to need somebody with a lot more experience to… “guide” us. Or at least tell us when we are tripping dangerously close to the ship’s edge. Plus some true to life horror stories (like old wives’ tales) that teach moral lessons more effectively than lectures back in college.

Enter our guest columnist, Chris S., the Old Underpaid Professional. He has spent XX years of his life he can never get back working for various companies. (The Yuppie crew was once his peons. The Yuppie crew *fondly* calls him “Hentai Baba” or perverted old lady.) While working for other people, he dreams of making his own company where he is his own boss and he gets time enough to tend to an organic farm.
