Civil Engineering is hazardous to your career prospects

<p>

My high school GPA and the GPA for one of my semesters in college was 3.833 (5 A’s, 1 B). Multiplying it by 100 gives 383.3, and rounding it down to the nearest integer gives 383, which is a prime number. Can you give me a job now? :)</p>

<p>Getting back on topic, I just found out that the construction problems aren’t confined to residential and commercial real estate:</p>

<p>[AmeriSurv.com</a> - Nonresidential Construction Employment Falls in May](<a href=“http://www.amerisurv.com/content/view/7460/]AmeriSurv.com”>Home - The American Surveyor)</p>

<p>“Employment in the nation’s nonresidential construction industry fell by 4,200 jobs in May”</p>

<p>“The heavy and civil engineering construction sector lost 7,400 jobs”</p>

<p>If experienced workers are having trouble finding jobs, how are recent college grads going to stand a chance?</p>
