Education Pays
Does your pay match up?

This is depressing.

My selfish take (bearing in mind we really need to think more about those 9% and 5.7%—the recession is extra hard on the blue-collar workers and more outsourcing isn’t going to help.)
Maybe I should consider a PhD instead of going for two Master’s after all? But of course, the only thing I could really dedicate that many years to would be creative writing, and my gut says quite a few Creative Writing PhDs are in that 2.0 unemployed figure. But an MFA and 2nd Master’s in Technical Communication? That could be my weekly earnings up a bit…maybe.
