Yeah, whenever I have trouble on the job here in the big city east coast, I go yelling and screaming to the unemployment agency. They usually help work things out before I quit or anything like that.

I updated my resume last week and shipped out about 25 copies to local

the local Frito-Lay factory..they are looking for a 2nd shift maint
guy..and after completing the rather wierd and inane online test..was
told that there wasnt any openings that I would fit into...but they
will hold my application for 6 months and then I can try again.

Im starting to wonder if its my age that is the problem. I figure Ive
got at least another 10 yrs of full time work..but I send out the
resumes and applications..and hear nothing back from any of them.

acres and a mule.


Goodness Gracious. Are you telling me that Gunner didn't join the Army
when he was 12 years old and cross great oceans to make the world save
from Communism?

That my hero has feet of clay?

(or was that head?)
