I don't know how to get a good job (meaning not writing corporate tracking
/reporting/business logic) without grad school.  I don't want to appear to
be a typical undergrad with unrealistic expectations of what will happen
when I graduate, but I work a lot not, I've worked in real jobs doing real
work for a long time, and the only thing that keeps me working at them is
knowing that it pays for school so that I can do something more interesting
in the future.

Perhaps I should just take more risk and try starting a business rather than
go to grad school.  That might be my fall back plan.
