Good Luck Getting A Job In This Economy...

700 people applied for a single janitor job at an OH high school. $16hr and benefits doesn't sound bad though!

So in Meteorology school, we were always told by meteorologists who have been in the biz for a long time that the field is overpopulated and we won't get jobs, just the opposite seems to be true.  Most everyone I graduated with hasn't had much trouble finding jobs, and the office I'm in now is looking to hire on more people now.

The topic title was for humour purposes.

I would get a job with those benefits and the pay is excellent. But I would never be a janitor. LOL.

But in terms of serious, I don't think with this economy I would never return to my old job, as a secretary's aide nor would rather find a new one. I'd go to it and the next day I'm laid off. I don't want that to happen.  :no:
