I am not on the dole. I have a double Bachelor of Science, I am a retired Naval Intelligence Officer. I have written cover letters to employers like Hertz to let them know I will work for 8.00 an hour, I will pick up cars and clients, I will make them feel they have had an exceptional customer service experience.

I never even rated an acknowledgement that I had applied.

We are in a steep sided shithole that gets more slippery by the day. The harder you claw the deeper you sink.

There are people who are users and takers. Everyone knows that. But there are still people who cannot find work for any amount of pay. College graduates, experienced leaders and managers, people with wisdom, lessons learned, a lifetime of knowledge in the workforce, what do they get?

No response.

Nothing. Do people give up? Sure they do. Have I? No.

I will never give up. I will not let these marxist bastards win.

Mk key point was that the people that were polled state that they are waiting for the job that they “really want,” while you understand the reality of the economy and would be willing to take almost any job.

Have you tried to apply at FT. Meade? They are bringing in 30,000 jobs from other bases and not all the folks are moving here. I would give that a try. Plus, I hope you are catering your application to the job. Double Bachelors is a killer....first they will say overqualified and then they will say, “Why not a Master’s”. Seriously....you have to play the game. Although I think you know that. You are a smart guy for sure.
