I know exactly how you feel! At my age they don’t want to hire me because either I have too much experience or laughingly not enough, the truth is they think older experienced people won’t stay, are only idling while looking for something better. I was really depressed recently when a school district called me back after initially rejecting me to offer a job, then they yanked the rug out from under me because of a five year old traffic ticket, zero tolerance don’t you know! I have trouble relating to this woman because I am losing hope that another door will open.
“...they yanked the rug out from under me because of a five year old traffic ticket...”
Oh man, that just s*cks.
Hang in there. I’ll say a prayer to St. Joseph for both of you.
And please call McConnell, because he rolled right over over the debt ceiling.
This is how the R party gets it’s “nothing for the little guy” rep.
Sorry, but it’s true.
Heck, before I left the states 16 years ago, I was told that I was “overqualified”.. Still p!isses me off today :/ All I wanted back then was a stable job (and I would have stuck with it).
Looks like, if I go back now, I would not only be jobless, but homeless too :/
Check with your main DMV head office....or go to the local DMV and ask for the phone number to get in touch with the office that can expunge a non injury non DUI record.
I had two old incidents on my driving license...a rear end, and I got stuck in a ditch and broke a fence.
Anyway with a clean DMV license I got my CDL 2 years ago (at age 70), delivered motor coaches around the country for a year and now drive gas tankers.
When way past shelf life its tough to get a job....I look at it as free exercise...what doesn't kill you makes you stronger.
