Don't feel bad everyone. I am 52, graduated magna cum laude batchelors in bus., and grew up in family businesses, however despite having an assoc. in bus. and working for over 15 yrs. in mental health as a counselor w/admin. duties I can't break into the bus. field. NO EXPERIENCE!! Family businesses etc. are to far back to make it onto a resume. It sucks all the way around..lifes experiences and abilities don't matter. I thought I'd have no problem getting a job, boy was I wrong.
