Unemployed again

Damn, sorry to hear that man. i'm about to be unemployed. My job is pure hell! Working 6 nights a week sorting packages for a shipping company. I was only supposed to be working till about 10:30, but almost every night since i started, i've been there till 12am or later. Oh, well. Hope you find something man.

 

come work for me....flexable hours, you get to drink beer on the job., You can take naps,.... oh unfortunately I may not be able to pay you......

 

work at best buy
-)

 

Hope you find a job Michael!

 

mike i have an idea why dont u sell products online? sounds like a pretty good idea to me :unsure:

jk man, hope ya find a job soon

 

That's just cold man...

 

Education is the best investment one can ever make for himself/herself..........

 

Almost everyone I knew went off to college this year. They kept telling me to go to college instead of a technical school... Hopfully an A+ and net+ certification will help me out... I do wonder how hard it will be to find a job though

 

damn ... best buy not hiring?

we just had a job fair at the ones in memphis cause we need people for the holidays

its not so bad

 

I am going to be displeased if I dont get a job after college...
Oh well. Hope you find a good job Mike.

 

Nothing in this world is gaurateed, but an education is a step towards a more promising career than standing in line at a temp agency. Its hard to get a job wether ou got an education or not, but i'd much rather be unemployed for a while with hopes on landing a job making 40+ K a year than hoping to land something that will just get my bills paid with no chances of advancement. No disrespect entended to anyone who hasn't furthered their education. There are promising careers that dont required a degree and such, but i feel your chances are upped a great margin with a degree under your belt. I'll take my chances with an education anyday. But hey, whatever floats your boat or finds your lost remote.

Well put, i agree. There are jobs to be had w/out a college education, but they are much harder to come by, and advancement is very difficult.

 

Problem is that pretty soon you're going to need to have a college degree to get a decent job...companies in general are pushing for people to have degrees for nearly all positions and stress the need for "continual improvement," which does include taking more schooling.

When the economy is good, 75-85% of grads get good jobs straight out of college.

 

Hmmmm. I never finished college and I do fairly well. I will disagree with this statement. Most careers that people go to college for are up and coming, and rarely stay the same. Many come and go, leaving a college grad to fend for themselves when they become obselete. As a tradesman and a craftsman, I learn on the job every day, and make a nice wage at that. Will I ever become obsolete? No, in fact as vehicles progress I will become more valuable. Rarely, if ever, will you find a shop owner who will hire fresh out of college, it is experiance prefered. I think the same goes for construction, plumming, and the other trades that we depend on with our nation growing at the rate it is. A trade also works itself out in trade... I need a plummer? I'll fix his cars in trade for him running me new pipes. I can do sidework as well to supplement my income and help others out. It's all in the way you look at it.
