graduate job

Something that all university students are told they must set out to attain, without which their life will be deemed societally worthless and all their dreams will never come true.

Got a graduate job yet Steve?

No not yet.

Sorry to hear that...have you considered having yourself euthanised?

Graduate student syndrome

Graduate student syndrome includes those who've never held a job, their parents paid for their education, think that they know better than you outside of their discipline, can never be wrong, can't admit when they are wrong, and are insecure.

Jesse attempted to school his landlord with respect to property management law. He got his ass handed to him. He thinks that he knows everything and is never wrong. I think he's suffering from graduate student syndrome.

College Graduate Dichotomy

When a person graduates from college, although they have a degree they may not be able to get a job because they don’t have experience. But, they can’t get experience unless they get a job.

The term was first coined by Dain Lewis on his blog the smart college grad.

Jack graduated from college with a degree in business. But, Jack didn't work at any businesses while in college. Jack then couldn't get a job after college because he didn't have experience. But, he couldn't gain any experience because no one would hire him. Jack found himself in the college graduate dichotomy.

The Graduate

The 1967 classic starring Dustin Hoffman, Anne Bancroft, and Katherine Ross. The Graduate is about a recent college graduate (Hoffman) who is seduced by the wife (Bancroft) of his father's business partner, then ends up falling in love with her daughter (Ross). Anne Bancroft's character became one of the most famous characters in movie history, Mrs. Robinson. The popular song "Mrs. Robinson" by Simon and Garfunkel was used in the movie.

It was based on a book by Charles Webb with the same title written in 1963.

The Graduate is one of the best films that came out of the 60's.

Mrs. Robinson, you're trying to seduce me. Aren't you?

And here's to you Mrs. Robinson, Jesus loves you more than you will know.

law graduate

Someone who just spent at minimum 3 years in literal hell to not even be a lawyer. The law graduate is super smart, but not smart enough to avoid law school. The law graduate gets only minutes to celebrate before studying for the bar exam so that they can hopefully become a lawyer.

Make sure you congratulate the law graduate on their J.D. because they honestly have no idea what they’re doing at this point.

Oh, that’s a law graduate now! Not a lawyer though.
