I always knew the job market was suffering a lot because of the sagging economy, and I knew my profession area (BS in Computer Science) was a rough one to start with but I apparently was under-estimating things in a grand way. I graduated last fall, and so far I haven't found crap for a job. Originally I was going to teach HS CompSci, but that fell out as the requirements to be a teacher here in Louisiana didn't measure up to the available jobs (and I'm not keen on teaching in the New Orleans Recovery District).

So now I sit here, venting to a few thousand complete strangers on an internet forum, wondering to myself. What the hell am I going to do now? Grad school is out of the question, I can't pay my bills and be in school full time. Certifications like MCSE, MCITP, and Cisco are also out of the question until I can afford them. I'd work for peanuts if I made enough to live and pay my bills.

Does anyone have any good advice they'd share? Seems like I'm either missing something or another statistic.
