Down and Out in White-Collar America

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the trickle-down dept.

XorNand writes "Fortune has a pretty sobering article on the employment situation for white-collar workers. By many accounts, we've never had it harder--the slump in the 80's primarily hit blue-collar workers. While bleak, things might be inching towards the light; as my econ professor says, jobs are the last thing to recover after a recession."

    You'll look for a new wife when her breasts start sagging. You'll get someone young and flexible, someone who can put her knees over your shoulders.
