Hey Dick Snarfin,
I am a high school counselor. Part of my job is recommending careers for graduating seniors.
With the job market in the trash can, it's hard for me to be optimistic about a lot of these kids' chances. Should I be honest? What should I tell them?

Here's what I would say to those idealistic young students if I were you. Why not join the military?
It's fun. You get to meet a lot of interesting people and handle dangerous weapons.
It pays great and there is no downside. Problem solved.
