If you can fill the unforgiving minute
With sixty seconds' worth of distance run -
Yours is the Earth and everything that's in it,
And - which is more - you'll be a Man my son!

Rudyard Kipling

Forget your resume, just perfect your wait staff skills. I go out to eat and the waiter has advanced degrees and needs a second job because the restaurant is empty.

Look on the bright side. This is the perfect time to feel no pressure to get a job. Go online and find the cheapest flight to Greece or Italy and convince your other unemployed friends to join you on an adventure of a lifetime. Just work enough to survive and experience a new culture. Perhaps your folks will feel sorry for you and throw you a few bucks. Now you are living.
