Event planning a "hot" career

According to this article, event planning is one of the five hot careers you can have without getting an MBA. But their definition of event planning is basically party planning. It's not all fun and games, folks. Someday, people will get what it is event planners (not to mention meeting planners, convention organizers, etc.) do, but that day is not today.

Thanks once again to the MeCo listserv for the pointer.
