Yes, we're all aware of that. What I think is jarring to most of us is that the requirement was apparently that a job within a certain relatively narrow range by graduation was a requirement or the whole search was off.
If that's what the requirements were, then fine. Prudence took a shot and didn't get the brass ring. There are certainly worse things in life than an education not directly in use (and, in my opinion, no such thing as an education that goes unused). But if it is just that she's just momentarily deflated that the first round of opportunities hasn't worked out, then friends won't let her just take her ball and go home.
Apparently, most people viewed it as a case of the latter and responded appropriately (I've certainly seen many students despair at concluding their professional degree and not having any immediate prospects).
Prudence has explained it is a case of the former and I'm fine with that.
