Just about describes the employer's perspective perfectly!

As I said, I'm in the Postal Service, and I don't have to worry about too much of that nonsense with what I do for a living, but I think trying 'to get a foot in the door' as Trekhawk said, is the way to go. The tough part is finding a musuem/library near to you.

Good luck!
