Re: Being unemployed really sucks
Congrats man, its nice to hear that some people are breaking through the abysmal job market and finding jobs out there. I was close to getting a job with a call center, no fun but it pays the bills, but then my contact was sick for 3 days and nobody else there would help since they said I had to contact my rep and by the time they returned to work yesterday, I was notified that the position had been filled, unbelievable.Comment

Re: Being unemployed really sucks
I don't mean to be a prick, but from my and my friends' experiences (we're all young'ns), for retail jobs like that, you generally apply and then call them. Obviously I don't know about your area or whether you had done that, but with the internet applications, they get a significant more than you do in the days of walking in. If you call them, you could have better luck that way, but they generally won't call you if you just apply.Comment

On a side note, I finally got a call back from K-Mart, after being told I was over qualified they finally offered me a seasonal job with the chance to stay on board after the holidays if I prove myself so I atleast got that going for me. Not full time and not guaranteed after the holidays but its better then nothing.Comment

Re: Being unemployed really sucks
I feel bad for you guys, this past week I worked 90 plus hours and made some serious bank.
The best part is that half that time im not working and surfing the net waiting for other people to rehearse.

Re: Being unemployed really sucks
All I can say is going back to college full-time was the correct move for me right now. With all the lay-offs happening around here jobs are very hard to come by. I've had two friends who have lost their job in the past 3 months and they were both in management of their respective companies. They are having a rough time finding anything also. Anyone that has a job right now should be pretty thankful. Stuff you took for granted in the past really means a lot now.
Good luck to everyone out there who is still hunting.GT: Herkyalert

Re: Being unemployed really sucks
UGGGGGGGH - well, as the saying goes, the Lord givith and the Lord take away-ith...
Just got a call back from the staffing agency. The job that I was to start Dec 1. now was canceled - the "big company" said they were not going to hire anyone until the new year, so it may be revisited in January. The guy told me there might be something else that may be starting - but I am holding no hope.
I want to give a big but whipping to the greedy CEO's and crooked businessmen who put not only myself, but fellow OS'ers - and millions of other people - looking for work...Comment

Re: Being unemployed really sucks
I have a bad feeling I'll be posting this thread more frequently in the near future. My father talked to me today about closing down the business and other related stuff. Things have been tough this year but this was the first time I could sense defeat in his voice. He had just looked at all the financials this morning and unless things turn around quickly we are going to be in trouble. ****ing economy."You make your name in the regular season, and your fame in the postseason." - Clyde Frazier

Re: Being unemployed really sucks
Yeah I hear ya. The thing that sucks about our business is we handle telcom/network stuff for a lot of small businesses and most clients are either going out of business themselves or downsizing and moving their business to their home.

Re: Being unemployed really sucks
I get to join this thread as of about 6:20PM this Sunday.
I'm pretty shocked too. Company got rid of me for no reason either. Just wanted to bring in new people. Back to job hunting I guess...I don't like the Yankees, I like the Red Sox, I don't like the Lakers, I like the Celtics, I hate the Canadiens and I love the Bruins. Soccer is the best sport on Earth, but most Americans are too ignorant to realize it. I am American.
