Got a Job or Looking For a Job?
While checking my email today I ran across this story on the front page of Yahoo!. Gotta tell ya, I take a way a lot of life lessons from this one but I’d love to hear your comments. In a nutshell, the story’s author; Mary Pilon from The Wall Street Journal writes about a gentleman; Carlos Araya who until, at some point in 2007, was working on Wall Street as a crude oil trader. At the time Mr. Araya was earning over $250,000 per year.
Living the high life as a top-earner, Araya once ordered lobster and fine champagne on a regular basis at The Palm Restaurant in NYC. After losing his job and going on many interviews for a similar position on Wall Street, Mr. Araya now works as a host of the same restaurant he once frequented as a customer. His current salary: $25,000
