Wow low paying seasonal jobs that will go away after Jan 1st wow...........glad some on CD get it
even the non seasonal jobs taking out are low paying no career path BS jobs.............
ever stop and thought why labor participation is low...........
who wants a $9 job at retail using your cell phone/minutes working 30 hours with no benefits or 75 hours and texting your boss/offshore software dev/pick a topic while trying to eat dinner/watch your kids' game
Capitalism has created a permanent underclass in our society. This is the fault of the rich, not the poor. $9 an hour with no benefits is slave wages, yet the rich and ignorant fight to keep things that way. At least the massa took care of his slaves when they got sick.
I'm a Recruiter for several aerospace companies across the country.
We get job orders for everything from assembly workers to engineers and the pay is decent
I'd guess 40-50% of the time when an interview is requested, the candidates fall of the face of the earth, only to resurface in a few months begging for work
In reviewing resumes with people, again, from all walks of life it's insane how many people quit their jobs with nothing lined up.
Their reasoning being, job wasn't challenging, no room for advancement, couldn't get time off to go on a trip....
Most people don't seem to stay at a job, by their own choice, longer than 7-8 months.
There's a major problem with self entitlement besides there being "no jobs"
In my 22 years in the workforce, debt and jobs have never been so crappy as it has under this clown. I cant wait til we can count down the days til he is gone. Its been 8 years of pure, unadulterated HELL.

Scathing indictment of capitalism, one I happen to agree with.
Why don't you go apply for all of that free stuff and come back and tell us how it went for you? Oh..never mind, it will be 4-9 years before you get that subsidized housing..dang
It must go pretty good because I know several people whose life revolves around that game.
I myself make too much money to be eligible for any govt handouts. Stupid me.

Yes, there was never poor people in the history of the world until evil capitalism came along and created them.
Besides...We used to be capitalist....but we long ago gave that up in favor of a quasi socialist form of government where massive international conglomerate corps pay our leaders cash in exchange for writing laws and tax codes to benefit themselves. But go ahead and blame that on capitalism. Complaints like yours remind of those recipe reviewers where they swap out ingredients and change up some ratios and then leave a nasty 1 star review about how crappy the recipe is after the cake didn't rise.

Wages went up by 9 cents an hour last month. That may lure some folks off their duffs.
A whole $0.09?! That and another $2.00 is enough for a gas station coffee
