Glad I could help you abit Doug.....
Just think, there are other ways of measuring 'success' other than having a fancy job......personally, I don't think anyone is anymore successful that another. Everyone is a valid human being no matter what they 'do'..... Am I less of a human being because I don't have a job? I hope not!!
Could you tell your friends that you are having a 'year out' after uni? Maybe do some travelling, work on charity projects abroad, that sort of thing. In the UK its quite acceptable, even encouraged to some degree, so take some time out after uni (or even before/during) by employers. In fact, its bit of a cliche here. But it might be good for you, give you some distance and perspective......I don't know if that sort of thing appeals. Well anyway, I wish I could take my advice at times! I constantly beat myself up over the fact that I'm not doing what I want to be doing with my 'professional' life. Oh well. Its easier said that done....
Kind regards
Meri
