For my random anecdote, it seems like i'm finally starting to get the hang of this networking thing. It's just a lot more involved than I was able to be back when i was still living with my parents, before i moved out for grad school. Still got a ways to go, but it doesn't seem quite so mysterious or impenetrable anymore.

? What was the problem?

I never understood how networking worked (and probably made a few threads to that effect in my bouts of "i'll never get a real job" angst). I'm beginning to do so, but it's a function of being back in school and thus being surrounded by people in my field. Instead of where i lived, where no-one does what i want to do.
