BTW, I’m coming up on my 1 year “layoff” anniversary this month...

I'm praying for you, FRiend. Have you been told yet that "your resume's too strong"? I've been told that several times, and they don't like it when I ask, "where do you think I should weaken it?"

To: Night Hides Not

If an interviewer ever said something as assinine as that to me, I would get up myself and walk out, explaining how ignorant they are for saying that...

See, I and many others I have worked with in the past who are in the same boat are wayyyyyyy past the normal song and dance these days...People tell us basically that we still need to put on a show like nothing serious is going on and that we should put on a happy face that ther are jobs being offered...

Sorry...Hire me, let me prove you made a wise decision, and lets get to work...

We are through screwing around...

I appreciate the kiind words...And I will do my best to temper my attitude, but in reality, it is extremely hard to do...

The truth is nobody is hiring...Not in my industry, to make up for the purges early last year...
