I applied to three places. Hoping to hear back from them soon.

They're all for overnights since working with the public fucking sucks balls. That reminds me, gotta apply to more places today.

I need textbook money!

*sad harmonica*

13 months for me. It's been a long strange trip full of false starts and disappointment.

I just read that the average net worth of American households has dropped 40% since 2007, bringing us back to where we were in the Bush years...the George H. W. Bush years.

Something is really fucking wrong with the economy.

>not having a large network of friends and contacts in multiple cities and countries that can hook you up with jobs any time

You guys 4 real? I got an interview next week my friend got me, after quitting my last job because I wanted to move back to the US two weeks ago.

Nine months. Re-applied at where I last waited tables about a week ago, knowing they have an open serving position. No response. If a follow-up doesn't work out, I'll have to start just shooting in the dark.

applied to like 80 different places over 2 years...
all entry level bullshit like retail and food service
...zilch...

I get to go to the office of drunks and the mentally ill tomorrow...yay unemployment office.

Im not actually blaming him for the problems, Im blaming him because hes currently the one in charge and is complacent sitting there not doing anything about it, instead hes pushing health care (an issue that would be fixed with a strong economy) and making tv appearances on talk shows

I was in grad school on the east coast. Ran out of money. Had to move back in with my folks on the west coast where I don't know anyone anymore.

Also, we're on 4chan, we're goddamn introverts.

Health care is actually behind a lot of our employment problems. The job market would function much more smoothly if health care wasn't tied to employment, and the government's entitlement programs didn't run up the cost of health care in the US to four times what it is in other countries.

I'm a flaming libertarian and I would rather live under Britain's NHS than the US health care system, that's how bad it is.

I fucking hate it when they don't even reply.
They can at least give you a "no".
I'd be more satisfied with "frankly we don't want you here" than nothing.

Layed off from my job in February. Been applying at nearly 3 jobs a week since then and still nothing. Considering selling plasma for a little cash.

>>10095560
Can anyone sell plasma? Cause I'd do that as much as possible even if I had a job.

>>10095438
Maybe dropped off 40 resumes within the last two and a half months. Its making me depressed and making me think about my life.

>>10095559
Most places probably get lots of applicant. They don't have the time or money to call back just to tell you no.

Applied to 20 places so far and nothing. fucking hate that nigger obama.

All you people that can't find jobs, are you kind of ugly and socially awkward?

>>10095559

Seriously, I don't even know if my applications get caught in their spam filter or what.

I'd rather get a 'fuck you' than dead silence.

>>10095559
oh yeah. I cant count the number of times some dumb skank receptionist has literally
>>taken my application/resume
>>looked me up and down thinking she is smooth
>>Smiled

at that moment I know she is gonna trash the paper and I will never know what happened. Yeah I called to follow up...but at some of the shittier places where people come through like a revolving door, noone knows what someone did yesterday. THis shit is mad gay.

>>that feel when your uncle yells ITS BEEN ONE MONTH WHY DON'T YOU HAVE A JOB YOU MUST NOT BE TRYING HARD ENOUGH.

fucking baby boomers. They had all the fun and left us none.

>>10095582
Do you know nothing of the world?

>>10095582

No, I'm actually charming as hell, I am extremely successful with women and I've been in sales for a long time, and I've never come out of an interview without a job offer. I just haven't gotten an interview since I started looking in September.

>>10095597
Guess not, my friends and I change jobs at will. My ex gf got a new job last week, changing from her old job. Was the first application she sent off. My other friend moved to a new city, met a girl at a party and she hired him for a 50k entry level job... I have three job offers, one in korea, one in japan, one in boston

I just don't see the effects in my circle of friends, but i don't doubt its more difficult for others.

What country do you live in?

USA
