Career

ca⋅reer {kuh-reer}

–noun
1. A long period of servitude in exchange for operating capital and the promise of financial security and much needed health care coverage on release; golden handcuffs.
2. The mistakenly desired outcome of 16+ years of education.
3. An affliction whose symptoms are loss of life & liberty, general purpose misery, and resentment towards those who are unaffected.
4. A euphemism for 'professional labour camp'; these 'camps' are required to support capitalism's unsustainable drive for never ending growth.
Each of the professions means a prejudice. The necessity for a career forces every one to take sides. We live in the age of the overworked, and the under-educated; the age in which people are so industrious that they become absolutely stupid.

- Oscar Wilde (1854-1900)

Career Girlfriend

The Career Girlfriend : The kind of girl, whom by the end of the first date is already talking about wedding plans, kids and where the new house would ideally be.

Being your girlfriend is her career and you are 'the one'. This has of course been repeated many times previously, curiously failing each time due to a fleeing boyfriend.
"Watch out dude, she's a total Career Girlfriend!"

Warning Signs:

1) "Thanks, it's been a really good day - does this mean 'we' are an 'us'?"
2) Talk of the "L" word by date number two
