Hello,
I notice as of lately that no one is really hiring.
I am too is a unemployed person, but not for long I hope because this is my stress trigger.
I know people try to keep my spirits up, but it's hopeless right now and we might be in another war.
We are so focused on overseas activity, that they forget about us.
I rather be at job making money or owning a business than to waste my time and efforts towards a pipe dream.
I need to re-build my network a.s.a.p so, that I can observe grow it
I am an introvert, but I got to make money.

Part time or full time?
I have the education for it, just not the work experience.
I have a degree for administration.
I will take either part time or full time.
That's a typically a big category for jobs and I doubt appearance really matters but you probably need to be good on the phone.
Any interviews yet? Call backs?
I did poorly in my interview because I made a lot of mistakes when responding to a question.
I shook off and prepared, but no such luck for interviews.
" Been reading almost daily articles in the NYT with regard to both elder and youth unemployment, The rate of unemployment for youth is over 20% and elder is almost double that ,, what you have in the middle is the squeeze between the middle of these two with fewer positions being offered, at lower wages, limited or no benefits, and f/t being converted to p/t'ers. Statistics are meaningless if you change rules to fit a profile as in we no longer count people who have dropped off U/C roles and those who are not eligible are also not counted as they have become invisible ,,, so,,, 7.6% labor department unemployment rate on the national average in meaningless and more to the point is insulting..

The Politicians are crooks here too. Ca-Moron has shafted Britain big time and the one-way process of Americanisation continues unabated.
We need a Tea Party in our Country too.
