In more ways than one university is a dress rehearsal for corporate life. Except your bosses usually won't be nearly as intelligent as your professors.
The thing that will absolutely boggle your mind when you enter the working world is that people will actually take this thing seriously. And some of those people may have hire/fire authority over you.
Some people’s lives just don’t work out. And I’m one of those people. I don’t blame any specific person for this. And I’m done blaming myself. Nor am I “stupid”, in most senses of the word. I just… Things have happened, and gone wrong.
So that’s where I’m at. I’ll either graduate in three years (just under), or I’ll be dead. I honestly don’t think there’s any if’s, or but’s, or caveats about that. This is it, now.
So… I’ll still absolutely throw myself at this, and maybe along the way things will change, but… I honestly don’t see myself still being around in three years’ time. Not now…
I’m not expecting anyone to understand that. I’m just stating the truth. Because I can here, because it’s pretty much anonymous…
Some people make it. Some people don’t. I haven’t, and right now, well, I don’t see that realistically changin’.

Do with this information what you will.
I'm not ignorant of this fact. I've worked corporate before. I've also been fired for stupid reasons before.
So I'm aware of this. But this is just next-level dystopian...
That doesn't "boggle my mind" at all. It's just absurd.
I've dealt with "the working world" plenty already.
I've just never had to deal with a corporate Outlook account specifically...
When do you graduate?
Years away.
It’s a long, long complex story. But like, three years…
Unfortunately…
But that is what it is.

And I’m ok with that.
Hang tough and good luck!
