You've hit a major issue as well.  As long as you're wandering around 
pre-occupied with networking, rewriting resumes and covers, trying to 
show how 'agile' you can be, you'll be too preoccupied to get angry and 
depressed because the only things we do in the country any more are 
build prisons, gamble, flip burgers, play stocks, and be a customer 
supporting the unemployment industry.
