WEST PALM BEACH, FL -- Laura Leiva is a fixture in front of the Palm Beach County courthouse.

For seven years she has been selling hot dogs while studying to be a parlegal.

But the vendors have been told their business is cutting into downtown sandwich shops.

In May they say,they'll be ordered to leave public property and set up somewhere else.

Lauras ready to trade in her cart, but there are no paralegal jobs.

So you’ve listed three jobs. There are thousands of paralegals looking for work.

Besides, to judge from that picture of her, she might be weird and no one will give her a job.

Because the vendors are meeting a need better than the downtown sandwich shops.

How pre 11/08 can you be?
;)

I listed three LISTS of jobs, containing at least dozens of jobs, each. I could go on for days, just for West Palm Beach. Either she doesn't know how, or is not really looking very hard.

I guess you haven’t been job-hunting lately. You could post a thousand jobs and a candidate still might not be able to find one—not when the competition is in the tens of thousands.

Besides, as I say, she might be looking very hard and still not be offered a job if she is a little weird, over forty, or has to post on her resume that she has been running a hotdog stand for the past several years.

What about Once Upon a Time in the West? Although the movie itself is absolutely horrible, the fact Charles Bronson is in it, makes it a good movie. Does that make sense?
