another new person

Hi anyone who reads this,

I realize this is most likely not remotely intersting but I'm under the impression that it is good to at least try to introduce oneself for complicated sociological reasons. I'll try to make this quick and painless, as I do respect a lot of the users here and want to attempt to be credible.

I am a 24 year old recent graduate from Umass amherst with a degree in economics. I had a job, then lost it, and now am on unemployment wandering boards like this and wondering where I went wrong.

I've already posted in a thread regarding lyme disease as a bioweapon. I would link you there but that would be overestimating your curiousity and my ability to link to things. Personally, I contracted lyme disease at a young age and am curious about some things regarding it (which is why I posted in the mentioned thread).

Also, the link that led me here is the one in the Alien's forum created by Sleeper (Forgive my linking abilities). Basically I'm very interested in said topic and said poster and was impressed that I received responses to posts that some might consider less than useful.

Anyway, I guess people don't respond to these things, but I'm doing this for etiquette, and to show respect to the people who run this forum and the people who make it insightful.

Thank you!

Gday kwijibow, welcome aboard hope to see you around, and hope you can get back into the workforce as well.I went nuts sitting around for about 3 months last time i was unemployed.

You probably didn't do anything wrong. I suspect the news that the economy is going well is fiction
Don't come to Michigan---our jobs market is about the worst in the country.
