Cutting Commencement Comments 

“Can’t cut it…?” Then you might want to ask for retention, a grade repetition, to ready yourself for what’s likely to come. A society that the majority had been wishing for…a cost saving measure, of cutting out, the universally unliked “middleman”, in order to save you, yourself, some time and money. Well started out, like so many ideas that come to you in the middle of the night, as a stroke…of brilliance. Ended with so many who have been serving in such capacities, getting up-ended. So, is this, the beginning of the end, as so many throughout history of false prophets, who have profited from cataclysmic conditions. If you buy into such predictions, you might consider a career in crisis counseling, a growing field of doomsday specialists who live and practice by the motto "always room, for doom" This and other career counseling comments that have caused a growing number to cut commencement exercises altogether...😖

Perennial pastime... An annual recurring theme of my conversations with anyone who will listen..."do you remember who spoke at your commencement, the main message...from just a few days ago...?" 😒
