can't. dont have a job.Your posts used to have value. Go buy some weed or something.
who needs a job? We started picking pears yesterday. You get $10 for every bin you pick.
We need peach pickers too. That's hourly and you need a good eye. No picking the green fruit or you lose your job.

hmmmmmm....place to camp nearby?
TN: There is some camping around the orchards for sure.you mean this guy?
MMike: yup. pick one of those guys and your done. Too big to fit in a bin, among other reasons
I made myself laugh with that one
I'll admit it. I thought it was pretty funny too
Go back to skiing, trust me, it's the best thing you could ever do for yourself!
Dickus gives good advice.
Try medical research.
I heard McDonalds is hiring...
hmmmmmm......
No offense but I fail to understand why folks go to school for liberal arts degrees.
You got to go in there like you own the place but not in a cocky sort of way. Also do what everyone else doesn't do. Do what I do, show up in a t-shirt and jeans. I've got hired for the last 4 jobs I've applied for. I'm not dressing up in a F'N suit for a job interview.
"But that's what everyone does, it's what your supposed to do."
Bullf*ck. If you have a good command of NLP, you can use certain suggestions and key words that will resonate in their mind as well and set you apart from the pack. All about preparation my friend.
Also by freaking out before hand, or even mild tension will throw your energy way off. Energy is real and they will feel it as soon as you enter the room or shake your hand. Stand up straight and give a firm handshake. If sitting make a point to not slouch in the chair. Body language can be read just as easily as the energy you are setting forth based on your internal state of mind, even prior to the interview.
Consider this the best advice given so far and it's free. Some fools go to see job coaches or interview coaches for this info. Most folk are really really dumb and there's a lot of people that are really really good at it.

Did you just use the word BullF?ck?
Lol! :d
Your written communication skills are the suck; I was neither persuaded or impressed.
Think hard... Picking fruit is no joke. Best I ever did was 6 bins in a day. I've seen some people who can pick 10 bins a dayhmmmmmm......
Apples pay anywhere between $8-20 per bin depending on the variety/requirements. Its fun though, depending on your definition of 'fun'. Definitely a cultural experience.
I dont mind hard work & love cultural experiences but the problem is getting out there....the cost alone makes it not worth it. although i will be looking at CL ride share.Think hard... Picking fruit is no joke. Best I ever did was 6 bins in a day. I've seen some people who can pick 10 bins a day

Do americans not go tree-planting? I know a lot of people (including my OLDER brother ...not Da Peach) who made big bucks doing that.

Great advice for a guy with no practical experience, no specialized degree, coming off two years of doing basically nothing, and interviewing for jobs in a very difficult job market.

And I'm guessing Knuckleslammer was not interviewing for Chief of Neurosurgey at the Mayo clinic.
Hey! You can't call being a ski bum "doing basically nothing"...Great advice for a guy with no practical experience, no specialized degree, coming off two years of doing basically nothing, and interviewing for jobs in a very difficult job market.
Nope, Oracle Corporation.
There's money in the banana stand.Have you ever considered selling shoes? There's money in shoes.
Ben, can we open a banana stand at the base of Snowbird?
Here's how to NOT get hired...send an email to 6 different Craigslist job postings (without bcc'ing or anything) with the email subject "interested in position." And be sure NOT to put anything in the body of the email, simply just attach your resume.
I seriously just had this happen. Could you be any more slack? My guess is he's trying to stay on unemployment.

Coincidentally, OP has news!
there was a story on the news in charlotte about nc overpaying some peoples unemployment and they are wanting the money back....My guess is he's trying to stay on unemployment.
In all honesty, that isn't too much worse than simply spamming the very same resume to 10 positions without an email body. I have heard of a lot of people pitching the same resume (and it might not even be a good one).Here's how to NOT get hired...send an email to 6 different Craigslist job postings (without bcc'ing or anything) with the email subject "interested in position."
