Yay me! I passed the Media Specialist Content area GACE test. So now I just have to get a job. Normally I am an optimistic person, however in this economy, job opportunities are not plentiful. More like pitiful. I am fortunate because my spouse has a good job. I feel bad for those who desperately need a job, yet cannot find one. I admit I have not really seen firsthand how the economy is hurting people. If I did not have access to news sources I may not even know that the economy is in a slump. I still see plenty of people eating out and shopping—no changes there. It certainly doesn't seem like a "great depression" type situation. I guess that is what the media does best: allow us to see beyond the bubble we live in. Of course, it can be a depressing scene outside of the bubble. I just hope the economy rebounds soon...for all job hunters.
