Sparky1776:McDonald’s isn’t looking to hire 55-year-olds with college degrees.
Honestly, I’m appalled at the number of Freepers who think that getting even an entry-level, low wage job is a breeze in this wretched economy. Entry-level means entry-level — they don’t want you if you’re too old or have too much education or experience.
I’m a 50 yr old master electrician, they just laugh when you apply for anything but a technical job - then they would rather have a youngster.ynotjjr:Since Obama took office I lost a job, got a job, laid off from that job, then another company came to me begging me to come work for them, then job #2 rehired me from the layoff before things were set w/ new company, the “begging company” then dangles big money in front of me, I snatch it - then they lay me off THREE WEEKS later, kinda. Nothing official just, can you make it on 8 hours wages a week? How about 2?
Of course I’m going to file for those missing hours - that the government has already collected from employers.
Beck doesn’t know what he is talking about in this DEPRESSION.
Yea, I heard Beck say that and I thought, what a jerk. Morally, I couldn’t do what he does, sell gold as an investment.madison10:
Easy for him to say...HE has a job.TruthHound:
Whoa, the E-word, "elitist." It's on now.I’m a Beck fan, but he and others with this attitude are being elitist.
No, I don’t want unlimited weeks of unemployment available. Any extension needs to be paid for by cutting somewhere else. And I recognize that there’s a significant number of people who are making the Gov’t dole a way of life.
But this “just get a job” attitude is patronizing in the highest order.
Now back to your regularly scheduled fear and loathing.
