KoreAm Journal

you can't wait to see me? ;) kidding.

I am enjoying this issue causes its given me great office chatting material!
- The young and unemployed by Smriti Rao - the title only got me remembering my youth. Getting my first degree, in my twenties where I do not get to intern not because of cost but lack of guidance, which didn't enable me to make career connections. Trying to get a job ... See Morewithin my field of study, was not happening without experience. So find "a" job and pursued another degree. Now in my early thirties with a degree in Business Administration Human Resources. You'd think I'm happily working within some giant companies' HR department; um no!. Instead I find myself working in a financial credit unions corporate office and doing absolutely nothing related to HR!. And I went through all that without a recession, so to think of someone younger then me in need of that first good job in the right direction; I do my best to help them cause I didn't have that help myself.
- throwing a lifeline by kathleen wentz - let me tell you how much this hurt to read! I am a first generation American and come from a highly multiracial family: Haitian, Cuban, English, Chinese, Russian, Italian, Dominican, etc; you name it we got it! 85% of my family either has some health care insurance or no insurance at all!. I have a god-sister working in London and I toured her hospital floor with her as she and her co-workers filled me in on how their health care worked. Can we say I was down right jealous that we( USA ) didn't have coverage for all here. And the way she is treated as a nurse over there is crazy; she is off every other week. Full education paid with living expenses and after successful graduation special government facilities for public workers! It is about time the US goes through this change and hopefully it will be one that my grand kids will be amazed that we ever lived without!
- either way I'm working like this issue - keep of the good work!

I am enjoying the new look of KoreAm and I think the lineup was spot-on and timely. A great mix for all. I don't know about that pig photo, but enjoyed the features on jobs, motherhood and insurance.

Oh, I think I see the discrepancy. The voting list on your main page has all 13 entries but the page from the link provided below (the one I clicked) only has the 12 entries.

I see 13 on both. Will check on this. Thanks for pointing this out.
