Post grad plans?

I will be graduating here within the month and still have yet to line up a job for the real world. It seems that almost everyone is struggling to find something to do. However, there are still plenty of options for all of us without plans. Many options actually sound atrocious and would be miserable for me but they could be a possible career choice for others.
Right now many of my friend are putting off the real world in aim of attending graduate school or law school. Without the proper GPA however, that can be a difficult task.
Government jobs are said to be where to go during our current economic status. They're monotonous, typically fairly secure, have a steady paycheck, relatively good benefits, and utterly suck. Who really wants to be the one responsible for individually knawing away at a corner-wrapping que of pissed off and often under-educated people frustrated at having to fill out a file seemingly worthless, monotonous paperwork for governemtn files? No thank you!
The Peace Corps. is a government based alternative option for the more selfless person. I've had several friend take up positions in the Peace Corps, one currently teaching English in Namibia.
So for the lost and discouraged, fret not, there are other rather unusual options out there for you, if you're willing to step outside youre comfort zone.
