You Owe Me

– Woman Sues School Because She Can’t Find A Job; Yeah, That’ll Make Her Even More Attractive to Potential Employers –

Trina Thompson thinks the world owes her a living. She is suing her alma mater, Monroe College, charging the college didn’t find her a job and stressed her out.

Thompson’s qualifications? She managed to get a 2.7 GPA and had a good attendance record. At a school that doesn’t even require you to submit an SAT score with your admissions application.

In other words, Thompson wants real life to be like a little league game where everyone gets to play, no matter how uncoordinated they are.

Just like you, I was amazed to find out corporations in a tight economy aren’t banging down the doors of mediocre students from rinky-dink colleges nobody ever heard of.

When she’s not gunning for the Guinness World Record for sense of entitlement, Trina is busy offering free legal advice to graduates who are having trouble finding a job suggesting, they too, sue their alma mater.

“It doesn’t make any sense: They went to school for four years, and then they come out working at McDonald’s and Payless. That’s not what they planned,” says Trina whose grasp of the legal system is almost as impressive as her comprehension of the job market.

Trina is said to be considering a lawsuit against Microsoft for not making her CEO after she sent them a very nice cover letter expressing her interest in the position.

In a related story, five thousand students who graduated with honors from top schools who are also still looking for a job suggested Trina should take her pity party somewhere else.
