I am a 22 year old, Computer Science major at Michigan Tech and I am preparing for my final year of college.
Somehow, after several interviews and about a hundred applications, I found myself out of a job for the summer. Even after an internship each of the last two summers I was unable to convince somebody I was worth the money. Rejection has always been a difficult thing for any human, but rejection from a job to me, is way worse than from a woman. When a woman rejects me it's because I'm not her type or she's taken or she just said no because I'm weird. When a company rejects me they spit in my face, discrediting every bit of work I've done up to this point in my life. But rather than getting down on myself this summer, I decided to better myself.
I bettered myself by researching cryptocurrencies and started mining a bit. Now, I am extremely new to this and extremely poor so it's not like I immediately started making an income overnight. I'm still poor and I'm barely making anything but I know that some time in the future crypto is a great source of a secondary income. If I take the time to research now, when the capital comes later I'll already be a step ahead of myself if I hadn't taught myself.
So that's me, just a college kid learning the ropes for the summer. I'm glad Steemit could be a part of that learning experience.

Welcome Jake, we live in a tough global job market, unfortunately corporations dont care about their employees, all they care about is revenue and profits, so they wont hire you if they think they can find someone else who can preform your job for less pay...

We here at Around the Block are in a similar position to you Jake, my friend. We have started this blockchain focused media company (as well as others) from our apartments in Kalamazoo. We are finally beginning to turn some big profits, however; there is no question that we have a long and arduous journey ahead if we plan to make our way to the top of the industry. Our team would be more than willing to engage in some kind of business collaboration, lend a hand, bounce ideas, or simply expand our professional network of Michigan based blockchain enthusiasts.
Give us a follow. We would love to talk!

Hey man! Welcome to Steemit! I know the feeling!
Though, I have to say, cryptos can be more than just secondary income. I make a living off of Steemit through my independent media! It's only been over the past month that it's really kicked in to become my main source of income, but after lots of hard work, it's happening.
I'll be following you. Thanks for the post! :)
