Sometimes it takes awhile to get where you want to go. But don't fear, the opportunity will come you just have to keep going at it.

That is great and all and we can all learn something from this. However, 7 fucking years to get into the industry you went to school for? Jesus Christ... grocery store stocking > gas station clerk > delivery.
brutal.
