Hope You Enjoyed That Summer Internship, It Was Also Your Last Summer

The brutal thermodynamic reality of post-graduation existence! First you're anxious about summer ending, then relieved when you remember you've graduated... until the horrifying realization hits that your circadian rhythm is now permanently synchronized to the corporate calendar. The 3-month summer vacation—that beautiful temporal oasis we evolved to expect since childhood—has been ruthlessly eliminated from your life cycle. Your biological clock is screaming in horror as it dawns on you that from now until retirement, you're trapped in an endless work-loop with only 2-week vacation increments to sustain your sanity. Welcome to the conservation of misery principle!
