Finest Worksongs: 11 Tracks For New Grads

This weekend will mark the end of thousands of college careers. Today's job news might have been mildly encouraging, but a 9.9% unemployment rate still means a tough road ahead for many entering the workforce. So we dedicate our May 7, 2010, episode of The Signs of Life Radio Show to all the new college grads out there. Here are 10 of the "Finest Worksongs."

You can listen live every Friday at 4pm in the Atlanta area or streaming on AM1690. All shows are archived here.
