Dee I'm so sick of people with no college education getting jobs over those with degrees. I busted my butt to get through and here I am, 4 months jobless with hundreds of resumes out there, and I've gotten ONE interview. At a hair salon. I've got the experience they want, I'm available 24/7, I put my salary requirement at $8 (min wage is $7.40)... tell me why I have a feeling that someone less educated got the job? To top it off, I went to a few Greek events in the last few weeks and apparently I'm the ONLY alumni (tiny Greek system) who is jobless. It's so embarrassing. My mom keeps telling me that there are thousands of others out there just like me but when I went to the unemployment office, it looked like a bunch of lazy trash. I was so glad that I didn't dress up and just threw on jeans and a hoodie and I was STILL dressed nicer than the people in there.
Must be nice to be those union autoworkers now getting hefty packages. THOSE are the people who are going to find jobs when they leave. We won't.
