You can go for an interview, go excellent and finish all the steps. Still you here nothing back. Then your records are suppossed to be kept on file for 6 months to a year. When you see the same job again "no record on file". You have all qualifications, mentally competent and proven performance of stability. Great reviews from previous employers. What's going on?

Thank you

Do you spell the word "hear" as "here" in your resume, or speak in incoherent sentences?

- I had to edit the post because I forgot basic capitalization, no job for me -

How on Earth do you think this is St. Louis specific?

And how do you know it went excellently?

I went to visit a long time online friend whom I've never met. I flew out there to St Louis from Southern California and I was expecting a lovely time with Midwesterners when the exact opposite happened. My online friend and her family and husband couldn't stop telling me how much they hate California. The funniest thing is, they have never even been to California! yet they had so much hatred for it. I left after being with them for only 4 hours and spent the rest of the days exploring by myself St Louis, and the surrounding areas. i will never be going back after all that rudeness.

Yeah, lets malign a whole city because some online friend from STL was rude.
Right.

They do that there. Californiweird, Californication. Not so bad in St. Louis itself, but gets crazier and more unreasonable the further you get from the city core.

My Ex-step-father-in-law had this pure hatred for California. Never under stood it - because every time he visited here, he had a great time.

After he passed away, I found out that his hatred came from "dating" a "she-he" prostitute when he was in SF before he shipped out during WW2.

BAH! I guess that's a good enough reason for someone in the Greatest generation

slack not needed, if things weren't as advertised, I'd be upset! LOL.

I've never been much of a fan of California. I do like the Northern parts of the state, actually have a bit of a soft spot for SF and envy my friends who are able to ride motorbikes 365 (grrr)...I guess the only spot I've been that I really didn't like was L.A. and Oakland, the rest was ok. I've had great times up and down the rest of the West Coast, Vancouver B.C. all the way to L.A., but as stated, the joy seemed to stop in that town.
