Check Out Career O’Rama
Link to article
We thought UP members might be interested in Career O’Rama. From their website:
“Career O’Rama was created to be a counter argument to the common career advice you will get from most career books, councelors, and well-meaning advice givers.
Our belief is that most of this advice is both mis-leading as well as mistaken.
Career O’Rama provides the space to re-think our relationship to work, why we work, what we expect to get out of work, and to tell the unvarnished truth about what it is really like to have a nine-to-five job.
If you disagree with an article, feel free to post comments. Discussion is good and the more information the better.
The discussion is meant to be a level above ‘work sucks’ and ‘bosses are stupid and evil’. While perhaps true, that ground has been covered.”

Career O Rama is a big waste of time. There wasn’t a single constructive suggestion there for either individual action or collective action. Just some guy whining about how much life sucks.

Isn’t that how most “career fairs” are?

The guy who runs the website obviously thinks work is punishment. You’d be better off cutting your leg off than going through life with that attitude.
