<p>The article was purportedly good news for 2012 college grads … COMPANIES WILL HIRE MANY MORE GRADUATES THAN IN 2011. Unfortunately I have a bad habit of reading the article that follows the headline. Sorry. Last week there was an article entitled I HAVE JOBS BUT NO ONE WANTS THEM. Part time minimum wage jobs … no benefits. This too shall pass.</p>
