The Future Is... Daunting.

I promised to be completely honest on this blog, and so it will be. The goal here is to capture this awkward phase of being in your early twenties and trying to make a life in this economy.

And so, here is the honest truth: the future is a daunting, as the headline indicates. It's the uncertainty in job interview after job interview... finding the right spot, the right fit.

Tomorrow brings about my interview with the staffing agency. I have no idea what to expect out of this. And like every other paranoid person, I googled "staffing agencies" and read all the good (and allll the bad) yelp had to offer. Then it hit me, we are definitely a generation of people who need to google every detail of our lives and read the reviews, just so other people can tell us if we're making the right decision or not.

Amazing! How did people make choices pre-search engine, I wonder?

I have to amend part of my life rule list: Not to allow online reviews deter me from living the experience myself. What works for one person may not work for the other, right?

I pose this question to my readers (all two of you): Why do you let other (interweb) people dictate your actions?

I'm still working out that answer myself.
