I have 5 plus years of experience and I am exceptionally good at my job. I am a IT engineer and for the last 3 years, I was making a decent amount of money. Now I am jobless.

I have never had a dearth of offers and as a result I had a wonderful career right from the age of 18. Now, at 23 years I am finding myself side lines by younger graduates with good BULLSHIT skills. It seems that the world today prefers only graduates with BS; they do not seem to value experience and expertise anymore. I have 5 years of experience and some great references, but no one is really bothered about it. I do not have the "BS skills" – with my experience, there is nothing that a new grad can do that I cannot do ten times better.

But how can I prove my point. Thanks to my Skyline in the last three years my savings have been eroded to almost nothing.

This is the first time I feel the importance of a post graduate degree. For 5 years it never came to my mind because my skills were so highly appreciated. Now I can hardly make to the interview table, and then I am rejected like trash.

I have tried all my resources, asked friends for help, family, relatives, all. In my last interview, there were a couple of guys who were up to no good, started making trouble in my neighbourhood I got in one little fight and my mom got scared and said you're moving with your auntie and uncle in bel-air. I whistled for a cab and when it came near the Licensplate said fresh and had dice in the mirror, If anything I could say that this cab was rare But I thought nah forget it, yo home to bel-air. I pulled up to a house about seven or eight and I yelled to the cabby yo, home smell you later. Looked at my kingdom I was finally there to sit on my throne as the prince of bel-air.

    • Mixing things up - installed some leather recaros to match the leather seat covered rear seats. Interior looks pretty schmick now except for some slight wear on the steering wheel which I will monitor and address if it becomes worse or actually noticeable!  
    • Didnt realise RB's had more then 1 head.
    • I'm normally copping my own abuse from neglecting my daily drivers. "Those suspension bushes will last a bit more", "Don't worry about the oil leak, just keep topping it up". The project cars I'm always doing things slowly on them as I'm wanting them to be done better, and neater, and nicer. Luckily I don't have to deal with 18 year old Matt's "Learning to wire" stuff in the project cars. And there's only one piece of wiring I'm displeased about in the Landcruiser, and it's about to be cut out... However, the box loads of parts that have been going through this place lately for the Landcruiser... Brake pads Brake Rotors Full handbrake overhaul Wheel Bearings Seals Swivel hubs Steering Boxes Half the suspension joints Shocks Air bags (Ones to go in the rear springs for towing) Water pump Timing kit Lower timing case Harmonic Balancer Radiator Lots of other little seals and shits Gas struts for the bonnet New power window switches And god knows what else I've forgotten... Ha ha ha I have my fingers crossed the pinion seals don't start leaking on the diffs, that the transfer case doesn't leak, and the gearbox input shaft doesn't leak, nor the rear main seal. As they're about the only seals I haven't replaced in the driveline! I'm seriously eyeing off buying new caliper rebuild kits front and rear brake calipers... I'll probably recheck all the valve clearances soon too, and hopefully, it should be all good and sweet to haul some long distance trips again!
    • Every time I pull my 3x gauges out of the console and see the crack-addict way that I did the wiring, and I just can't bring myself to tear it all apart and "make it nice", because it is currently working. In fact, the last time I was in there I probably made it worse.
    • The best part is when you own the car long enough that you look back and find your OWN ham fisted amateur shit!
