The REAL world is NOT what you see on MTV. If you think you will land a six figure job with a paid cell phone and a driver right out of college, think again!

The real world
- 1. By: Bill Leo
- 2. RULE 1 :LIFE IS NOT FAIR – GET USED TO IT! RULE 2: The REAL world doesn't care about your self-esteem. RULE 3: The world will expect you to accomplish something BEFORE you feel good about yourself. RULE 4: Your chance of making $100,000 a year right out of college is slim to none. You won't be a vice-president with a company car until you earn both. RULE 5: If you think your professor is tough, wait till you get a boss.
- 3. RULE 6 : Flipping burgers is not beneath your dignity. It’s called opportunity. RULE 7: If you mess up, don't whine about your mistakes, learn from them. RULE 8: Life is not divided into semesters. You don't get summers off and very few employers are interested in helping you FIND YOURSELF. Do that on your own time.. RULE 9: Somebody may be watching. RULE 10: Television is NOT real life. In real life people actually have to leave the coffee shop and go to jobs.
