I have a job right now but I can clearly see that I have no future with this company. I've applied for around 10 different jobs but no dice. Went back to college and graduated but that was a few years ago. Looking for some similar stories.

I agree. I work for a large hotel company and we just outsourced all of our payroll to a company in India. 10 years ago I was working as a rep for company that did the same thing. Sucks man.

Keep your chin up...be happy if you have a job...alot of people are unemployed. I have my degree, have some great work experience but have also been unemployed for over a year. I am starting a new job this week but it's a far cry from the nice money I used to make...for what it's worth, it will pay the bills and that's about it.Comment -
There is a 3 inch min pecker size for this type of job.Originally posted by jjgoldComment -
I suggest zero in on the company and job that you want and figure out how to get it or one similar. Today I have noticed guys lack tenacity. They send in their resume and thats it. I want the guy to FedEx his bio, resume and portfolio along with a hand written letter why he wants to work for me. I want the aggressive guy and I want to see letters of references. Get to know the company and everything you can about the position and stay after them. People give up too easy. Be a bulldog.Originally posted by BigcheezComment -

You're exactly right!Originally posted by SBR_John
When I was younger I was told by a manager to come by & talk to him. On that day I was there at 8:00 on the dot at opening time. He kept *ukin around & wouldn't really take time to talk to me. After about an hour I said "I can see you're really busy this morning sir, maybe you would like me to come back tomorrow, or whatever day?" He said yeah. On that day I came back, stood around for over an hour again, same thing. This went on 3 times until he finally on the third time made me wait over an hour then brought be in his office & we talked & he hired me.
He & I became pretty close, he ended up moving close to me & we had a great working relationship. He told me when he first met me he thought I was too cocky & wasn't sure how responsible I would be. He purposely made me wait he said to see if I would be walked all over by waiting all day before saying something, which I didn't. And he said I came back every time on time just to be abused again and that showed I was ambitious & reliable. That's why he hired me because I didn't give up, I didn't call the next day to see if he was busy, I was there at the door when he got there.
Kids these days don't get that. They want to email a resume & twitter me if I'm hired!Comment -
