Two weeks after lay off & still no interviews....


 
Except for head hunters....

Very depressing.

And you can't wait to vote for four more years of this.  :mental:

2. Two weeks?

No. 1: Apply for unemployment tomorrow. You will get it.

No. 2: Two weeks? Try 20 months.

I don't understand, unemployment is at record lows of 7.8% and they still can't find jobs? If you can't find a job in the bestest economy ever then you are really screwed.  :rotf:

Four more years, of unemployment checks.

Probably not.

And they get pissed off when asked if they're better off now than 4 years ago. :loser:

The DUches are the same as the people that were put in gulags and asked "Does Stalin know about this?"  Wait the Germans that got a shovel and worked 12 hours a day in the sun to build the autobahn for Hitler. They all were enthusiastic for a messiah too and would ask "Does Hitler know about this?"

Wile B. Obama is no different other than not being as smart.

If you've unemployed for 20 months or for 3 years and are still voting for Dear Leader, then that should be a sign to them as to why no one wants to hire them  Obviously they're idiots and the word "STUPID" is written on their foreheads.

That is because they didn't include California in the numbers last month. This month they did, so it will be back up to 8.3% next month.

5. Get your resume perfected if it isn't already, and consider posting on dice.com, monster.com, indeed.com, etc. but make sure your résumé is for prime time before you do that
 

Make sure you're not missing any important words!   :lmao:  Also, seek out RSmith for advice on cover letters.

We're others in your organization also laid off. Make sure you keep connected with them.


The thread is slain by someone in a position to hire.  It's a little long, but it smacks them in the face with reality and the horrifying prospect of *hard work.*

What is it that this DUmmie was doing for a living?  Can he afford to start his own business?

I surprised myself when after my fourth interview, I realized that I didn't want to work for any of the people that interviewed me.  I like to work, why shouldn't I be the one that actually derives the benefit of it?  That's what has me doing the work I am doing right now, with no guarantees.

Exactly.  I have not known one person that didn't get another job within 3 months.  My VP brother got laid off and had another VP job a month later.  Crap, VP jobs are rare.

Obama all by himself created 600,000 part time jobs last month so there are plenty of 24-28 hours/week jobs out there. 

Welcome to a fundamentally changed America, a better more third world America that is ruled by men and not laws.
