Finding a real job is sooo difficult.  I swear I've applied to like 50 different places in the past 2 weeks and I've only had 2 interviews.  It's absolutely ridiculous.  Why is the job market so fucking shitty?!?!?!

Yeah. My parents are always shouting at me to get a job and I apply like everywhere. The damn economy, man, it blows.

I understand how corporate jobs are hard, but seriously, what's so difficult about a receptionist position at my local dentist's office?  Gr.

Yeah i know.
it took me a month to find a job.

Tell me about it.

Its retarded. We have one of the highest unemployment ratings in the country. Its impossibly to find a job when you are competing with 10,000 other people, all of which will pretty much settle for anything.

Just wondering, but what's with the dp?

I just got a job as at a Pizza resturant (: It's so much fun and I get pain $7/hr + tips. Pretty decent, plus it's like my second job, and my first one I had to fill out a W-4 form for.

try looking on Craigslists... it is a great site.

No joke.  Not to mention, I really don't want to go back to waitressing or even a retail job.
