Fuck this Communist economy It is terrible In a Time of Universal Deceit, Telling the Truth is a Revolutionary Act - George Orwell Rachel Maddow is HOT!!! - Seriously I'd hit it. A VOTE FOR JUSTIN TRUDEAU IN 2015, WOULD BE THE MOST COWARDLY & IRRESPONSIBLE THING A CANADIAN CITIZEN COULD DO TO THEIR OWN PEOPLE. GUN GRABBERS ARE THE COMMON ENEMY OF ALL PEOPLE. GUN CONTROL HAS RESULTED IN THE SLAUGHTER OF 262 MILLION CITIZENS BY THEIR GOVERNMENTS OVER THE PAST 100 YEARS. THE LIBERAL PARTY OF CANADA & THE NDP ENDORSE GUN CONTROL, AN ESSENTIAL POLICY OF HITLER, STALIN, MAO, POL POT, EDI AMIN, QADDAFI, SADDAM, ASSAD, & EVERY OTHER TYRANNICAL GOVERNMENT THIS PAST CENTURY. CANADIANS MUST NEVER FORGET THE BETRAYAL OF BILLS C-68 & C-17. WE MUST NOT REST UNTIL THEY ARE FULLY REPEALED. C-19 WAS A GOOD START......BUT JUST A START. GET OFF YOUR COLLECTIVE ASSES AND MAKE AN IMPACT. WE HAVE 26 MONTHS. I, THEE BOB, SWEAR ON THE ALTER OF GOD TO FIGHT ALL FORMS OF CANADIAN TYRANNY AND SAVE MY COUNTRY FROM THE EVILS OF THE NEW WORLD ORDER. I WILL NEVER HAND IN MY GUNS. EVER. I AM A FREE MAN, I WILL NOT BE THE BITCH OF THE SOCIALIST ESTABLISHMENT. LEAVE ME ALONE. |

Check out your local community college to see what 2 year programs you might be interested in that will lead to some kind of career. Of course, you can always join the Navy. They will test you to find out what you are good at, and then they will train you. After that you can go to college on the GI Bill and get the education you need to have a profession. |

What gives? You usually have to know someone to get a job. Forget about the online applications. Contact everyone you know and ask them if they know someone who knows someone. Volunteer at a place where you want a job and work hard. Not sure how accurate this is, but.... [link to www.onlinecolleges.net] They seem to be saying the same thing here...

| Tirzah User ID: 30317917 United States01/11/2013 08:56 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | young man, get a job working at UPS or FedEx Ground. If you have a clean background then they will hire you as the turnover is great in this type of work. Yes, the work is physically hard but in a few months you will be stronger and healther. Get paid to get in shape. Seriously, a loader who I know that was overweight has only been working 3 months and has lost 35 lbs. He told me that he is so glad he didn't quit the first couple of weeks while his body was getting used to this hard physical labour. The pay isn't too bad either. 11.50 hr. starting out and 25 cent raise every 3 months. "The righteous shall flourish like the palm tree:" Psalms 92:12 |

I want a job. How many hours do you work a week? Shifts? Days on and off? Time on land vs on water? Pay? Thx. Quoting: Dr. Super Bowl Dave Commercial sailors are paid a day rate. Typically $250 to $300 per day based on a 12 hour day. After that you can retire to your room. This is a starting position. As you acquire experience you can move to other departments. Deck, engine room, or galley. Typically you work 30 days on and get 30 days at home. Every company is different though. Deep sea you might be gone 60 days or more. In the gulf you can work 2 weeks on 2 weeks off. It varies widely. If you are in port and you are not on watch you are free to go into town. But many companies are zero tolerance drug and alcohol so if you come back wasted you'll get fired. There are exceptions though and many crew have been known to have a sip or two before turning in. |
