"I'll take anything as long as I'm making more than $13 an hour," he said.

I think I have identified why this guy does not have a job. There are guys out there who will take any job at $12 an hour and even at $11 an hour. So if you were hiring who would you hire?

Wake up people! It isn’t a sellers market out there anymore.

And yeah, I do understand, I lost my job too. I might lose the one I have found since within the next few months, the company is struggling.

In this region I'm living in only one out of three jobs pays over $10 an hour and just as many pay minimum wage. Of course people making minimum wage usually qualify for food stamps, WIC, HUD and lots of other freebies. We should eliminate the minimum wage so people can work for $2.00 an hour.

I am working for $11 an hour right now, and busting my ass. I have no sympathy for someone who says they won't take anything for less than $13. Step aside and let me do the work! When the market turns up and jobs are paying more, who are they going to give the job to, me or the guy with the sign saying "Won't work for less than $13"?
