This would be funny if it wasn't so damn true...

As my roommate and fellow SCI_Arc grad Ji observed:

There is a considerate difference between our class and the current thesis class. When we were finishing up school, the big decision was whether to try for a design-oriented firm and sacrifice a good salary or go with a more conventional architecture firm and get paid a decent wage. Now, with the economy the way it is, the thesis students are thinking: well, I guess I will just have to start my own firm straight away...

...and take a weekend job at Fry's to make ends meet.

(Maybe there is a silver lining in all this)
