I mean networking and looking for a career before you finished your school. You know, you have to start somewhere and somehow. Don't give up and focus on what you like and want to do. It takes time. Learn to be parient. Don't complain because you never know who's listening...

Leaving is O.K. You have a chance to see the world. Isn't great? Adjustment to difference gives you more power. Your power is you.

P.S. We didn't have the housing bubble in Western New York. Our market is steady with great opportunities for all.

Golly darn, I wish I'd thought of that! Great idea!

Thank you. I am well aware if this.

Good luck with that.

Your naivete and that-won't-happen-to-us stance are precisely the marooned perspective that keep Western New Yorkers looking for spare change to buy toilet paper. Buffalo was better off 100 years ago. That's a fact difficult to "focus with power" away.
