I placed an ad for a medical receptionist ($10-$14/hour) and received over 100 resumes. I didn't know where to start and have interviewed two dozen people for this single position and the desperation out there is very real. People are begging for jobs. Thank you for nothing Mr. President. There's definitely no green shoots in the real economy.
yeah my daughter is looking for a job, it’s crazy out there!
Hire a FReeper!
*I’m looking. :D
There is no statue of limitations on document forgery and being an undocumented illegal alien. You might think that you can keep the truth from coming out, or the punishment from being dealt. But like our pie-hole, that is just an opinion.
Consider the following very cafefully;
Treason; Offense of attempting to overthrow the government of one’s country or of assisting its enemies in war. In the U.S., the framers of the Constitution defined treason narrowly — as the levying of war against the U.S. or the giving of aid and comfort to its enemies — in order to lessen the possibility that those in power might falsely or loosely charge their political opponents with treason.
The excesses of the Revolution prompted the framers of the Constitution to restrict the definition of treason to “levying war against” the United States and providing “aid and comfort” to its enemies, and to require the testimony of two witnesses “to the same overt act” and the establishment of treasonous intent for conviction. They limited punishment to the person charged, and abjured the attainder of the traitor’s relatives or heirs.
Requiring ONLY two witnesses for the charge of treason. Aid and comfort to the enemy, such as the Taliban or Al_Queda, charging US soldiers with Court Martial for given an enemy combatant a fat lip during capture.
So after he leaves office one way or another, the ramifications are still going to be there. This issue will not go away and as the fraud of global warming, the bail-outs comes out. So will the Obama’s treason.
Getting a job has always been hard in the part of California where I live. It got worse over the year. If things don’t improve by June, I am packing my bags and heading for Arizona or Nevada.
What in the WORLD are you talking about???????? Have you been hitting Grandma’s “medicine” again????
Still, there is a lot of competition. Usually people who are good at what I do are hard to find.
I’m in law enforcement, and have been applying and testing in various departments. It has gone from 8 - 10 applicants to 680 for the same job.
“Usually people who are good at what I do are hard to find.”
Same here, which makes it even more disturbing. I work with embedded avionics software, plus I have a wide and deep skill set beyond that.
If you could wear your freeper attire, then I could spot you.
Last time I checked Recovery.gov, Weatherford wasn’t scheduled to get any stimulus jobs. They did create 214 jobs in Texas’ 1385th Congressional District though.
The feds are the only ones hiring, particularly the FDIC. They're apparently ramping up their staffing in anticipation of 1000 banks failing over the next five years.
Also, don't believe the low unemployment stats for accountants. Big 4 firms have quietly laid off a quarter of their staff, with more to come.
That’s right. Too funny. I’ll avoid the government’s “free” money.
Wow....you could save or create at least 2 or 3 jobs just to review resumes!
I’ll be right there in my FReeper Tshirt Boss. I mean Dr. Boss.
Customer service is lost art and businesses that really utilize it in this kind of economy will win out in my opinion ;)
