Really? I know quuuuuuite a few people who negotiated some extra dough in their salary based on their student loan debt. If you're worth enough to an employer, they're willing to negotiate.
They'd also be worth negotiating if you have to move, or commute further then the next person being interviewed, but thats for your own personal benefit.. not the companies, unless you have something to benefit the company better then the next person..
I'd say its much more beneficial to note a benefit to the company that your husbands a senator, then you having student loans.

I think we're saying similar things there and maybe I just didn't communicate that effectively. I was simply refuting domer's prior statement.
Kudos to your friends, but the firms I interviewed with, if I would have whined about having student loans to pay and I need more money as a result, they would have stopped the interview and hollared "next!!!".
Sorry but working a hospital job to me, is not considered public interest work, or have you missed the whole health care, insurance, high prices, people being denied procedures out of a lack of being able to pay for them debate.
To me a hospital is a business and should be run as one. While the democrats want to see "insurance companies" run for public interest, and hospitals will only be next, until the time that hospitals become run as best interest for the public, and not the hospitals pocket book.. it can not be a public interest job.
Sorry, but if you go to a top-tier law school, working for a non-profit anything is surely public interest. Harvard (Michelle's law school) is now trying to entice folks to go into public interest law by forgiving them their loans for working in the field for several years.
I think you'd best reconsider calling other people's statements "ignorant." Nuns do NOT get paychecks. Their earnings go directly to the convent and they are only given $30 per month from the convent to buy personal items. I know this because my sister is a nun.
There's a whole passel of orders of nuns (including my next door neighbors). Deal with the issue of this thread, please.
regarding mrs. obama, (quote) her thesis revealed a cast of mind that most voters find deeply unattractive. Plainly Mrs. Obama had that cast of mind in 1985. Recent remarks suggest she still has it. The fact that Barack Obama chose her as a wife and seems to get on well with her, indicates that he shares it. It's that deeply, unrelentingly critical way of thinking about the U.S.A., and about most of our citizens, that characterizes the "victicrat" — the person who has been taught, or who has taught herself, that she is a pitiful figure buffeted by hostile forces, whose only hope for survival is to return the hostility, and to band together with others like herself ("the Black community") for mutual aid, all of them in a hostile posture to the out-group.
Most Americans don't see our country like that, and have a low opinion of people who do. Millions of white — or, as Mrs. Obama writes, "White" — Americans would love to have had the breaks Mrs. Obama had, and resent the fact that they didn't have them because they don't belong to a designated victim group. They resent the ease with which two beneficiaries of those breaks can parlay their victim status into two six-digit salaries and a seven-digit house, without ever doing any kind of work that adds to the nation's wealth or security. And they especially resent that people who have attained those heights of success, with the assistance of those breaks, seem to nurse nothing but hostile emotions towards the country that made it possible for them.
......and the money keeps rolling in.

YOU'RE the one who called someone else's post "ignorant" and then made an erroneous statement about nuns. Why don't you pop next door and ask them if they get an actual paycheck for their work? Or, at the very least, quit calling people names.

There is no basis for that statement. What did Michelle get because she was black? She probably can't get a cab in NYC or one to her home on the south side.
Obama has been in politics for a while. If he were so dangerous why hasn't he commenced a vicious anit-white campaign yet? I don't buy that Ms. Obama has made racial remarks.
As to her senior thesis at Princeton, I am very forgiving as to what folks say at the tender age of 22.

Actually, I didn't call anyone names. I said she made a remarkably ignorant statement and it was. Now show me where I was wrong in that assessment and deal with the issues of this thread.
