Why is it so hard to get a decent job?

Now that you have complained your food rashions will be cut in half.

Fuck you. I get no government help.

You don't like part-time jobs making 7.25 an hour? that's unamerican! you should be working for 5 cents an hour if the free market had its way.

The Wal-Mart Way?

Please stop making stupid comments and watch what I posted.

It is very hard now. The only way to get a job is sell yourself. I am going to work for a floor contractor as a Marketing Manager. I agreed to file my own taxes. Basically I have to earn every penny I make through sales.

Because you don't have any skills.

Probably not true at all.

He just doesn't have any skills that are in demand.

Welcome to the OBAMANATION :prcptn:

Why???


Hint ..........

NO WORRIES IMMA GONNA RUN THE FIELD, TAKE THE PASS AND WHEN I COME BACK YOU ALL WILL HAVE AWESOME JOBS, AND IN LESS THAN A YEAR YOU WILL BE ABLE TO DO WHATEVER YOU WANT TO DO FOR 6 FIGURE SALARIES.

THE ONLY REASON YOU DIDN'T HAVE THIS FOR SO LONG WAS BECAUSE OF A SELECT GREEDY FEW THAT WOULD NOT LET YOU HAVE THESE OPPORTUNITIES AND THEY ARE ALL DEAD NOW SO BE PATIENT AND THINGS WILL WORK THEMSELVES OUT JUST FINE.

We need to see things the same way. Somehow.

It's for our own good.

This political bull**** is way old.

Once people can put dollars aside and realize that their kids are more important than that is when things will get better. People need to have character.

And trustworthiness.

They need to know that that can trust their neighbor.

I want America back.

I hate our politicians.

They have robbed your kids of a very good thing that once was.

^^^^

Wow, this is the longest C. post EVER!

And POLITICAL to boot!

C. is never political.

Wow.

Things were going to shit when Georgie was around too. They just got even worse under Comrade O.

America's been going down the crapper since 1959.

OP

What state are you in?

Hey man. Just collect all the free stuff like the rest of us.......

The turn over rate where I work is 59% last year.

Youz kids don't know the meaning of perseverance..you ain't ready to move 18-20 tons and that is what is expected.

It's a racket

You want a tit job, you have to be a cut throat

The beauty of capitalism..

Agree with you OP!

One of my family members just got dropped to part time from full time. He was at 40 hours a week and was given only 17 hours last week, only 19 the week before. He is struggling badly and cannot find other work that is full time.

Personally, I experienced the same thing recently while looking for a new job. I stopped looking because every single phone call I got was for part time. One even told me they would consider full time for me after 90 days.

I don't make great money at my current job and thought since everyone is saying its getting better I would look and it is not getting better. I'm staying with what I'm doing now and now just being thankful I have something. At least what I have now is full time.

Good luck to you OP, it is tough out there!!

Honestly I think it's always been like this. my dad was flipping burgers at McDonald's before he got a 50 hour a week job. but he always says he was lucky and the job got handed to him cause he knew ppl at the company. he still has the job but now I can't find 1. idk what it takes right now to get a job like that. not really worried cause I didn't finish college yet.

So move your sorry ass somewhere else besides a Blue city!

Jobs are everywhere. Listen to Dave Ramsey. People call in every day taking about getting raises and getting better jobs.

I got laid off after 13 years with a huge company here in the US. It was pretty shitty. I was working at Target at night and working as a sub contractor during the day. All my other free time I was working on peoples computers, mowing yards and working on cars for people.

I did that for about a year and a half before I moved out of state to take a contractor job which led to my being hired as a full time employee.

You might have to move to find a job and you might have to do shit you don't want to do for awhile.

Make something happen for yourself.

If you develop skills it takes time. You then become subject to the particular field of specialization you are in. The eCONomy is dependent on ever increasing amounts of government spending, the government is consuming the real economy.

That means job sectors that enjoy current health, may become ill (bust) as real organic demand is unknown. In fact people with capital (wealth) do not know where to invest their money because they do not know what real demand is, so they would rather invest it in the ponzi eCONomy which yields then higher, short term returns (DOW).

Then, you have to learn a new skill set or spend years trying to get another job in your former specialization. If you try to find that other area, you start over at low wages if you can find a job. The problem becomes employers don't want to risk hiring you at that low pay because that "recovery" is always around the next corner. They assume that when the economy picks up again, you will take off into your former specialization for more money.

Sooner or later the majority of us, not just some of us, will experience what I am saying, in spades.

.

All the big box building material places are about to start looking, one even announced that they would be hiring 80,000 people. Sure its seasonal but they do tend to keep the best of the bunch full time perminant after the summer is over. The trick is you got to show up on time every day and actually work while you are there.

The question is; what do you imagine is going to happen that is going to bring about an economic recovery? 70 to 80% of our economy is consumerism. Consumers are tapped out and the political elites want to cut back on programs that pump currency into the system, meaning we are headed for austerity. If anything expect a tougher job market.

Because no one will hire anyone when the economy is about to tank big time.

Prepare to brace!

When BUSH was in office there were jobs.
Today is a total different story and Obama is making it worse every day....and they LIE about it too.

America started to head into the economic crapper with Clinton and his repeal of Glass-Steagal.
Had he not done that....we would not be where we are today with the economy.
Bush had little to do with our current economic disaster.
