If you believe those numbers, you probably believe that unemployment nationwide is around 5% as the government tells us.

Dodge! Parry! Thrust!
Even if you had an answer, I don't understand why your question matters in the first place.

Intellectual curiosity. She specifically mentions the college that she works at and how so many of the Millenial graduates are getting jobs. I just want to know what the trend is. Higher, lower, stay the same? Which school.

Talking with her is more interesting than reading the numbers from that article. Higher education is a hobby of mine. Job placement, graduations rates, distance and online learning are all things that I'm keenly interested in.

She can go back to emoting in other threads, she's under no obligation to answer my questions.

ok, fair enough.

if i was in her shoes i wouldn't give out detailed info either, but then, i probably wouldn't go around talking about my workplace in the first place.

Fat kills, but getting fat is a personal choice in most cases.

I'm glad for the younger generation finding jobs, and for the Boomers being able to retire. If the theory about the reason for this is true, then this trend is just beginning, and will last for a long time.

Telling me which school it is is not very detailed information. And like you mentioned she brought it up, I'm just curious. I understand her reluctance to answer, I'm pretty handy with the research and I read a lot of articles about this stuff.

Fat? You didn't read the article? Black people and Hispanics have a higher Obesity rate than White people, more of them would be dying off if "Fat" was the reason.

Anyway, doesn't matter I suppose.

You got jokes. Just know that it is a HBCU in the west, north, east, and south!

No, I am not going to reveal anything other than general information about my career. There is no need to make anything up and I for one do not find it difficult to keep it real, which translates into being truthful with others. In all honesty you all are social media onlookers and will not be privileged to all that I share with authentic family and friends. How dare you ask such personal questions?
