| I can't tell you how many stores and places I have been to, seeking employment.. each one tells me to go online to fill out the application. In most cases the online ap takes longer, usually WAY longer, than filling out a paper one ever would... some times you get stuck in not being able to come up with a unique enough log in or like the one I just tried to do, they tell me I am already in the system and can't reapply unless I change my e-mail address (WHAT???). I am so frustrated... I spent just under an hour Sunday filling out one of the online applications and I never even go so much as an automatic e-mail saying they got it.... No one has called me from a single one of these online applications....
Maybe this is the real reason that unemployment is so high in this country? LOL!
I need a part time job. I'm feeling desperate... my unemployment ran out in June. At this point I will take just about anything if it can fit with in my kids school schedule.... I have been to the unemployment office and all they do is direct you to computers with more on line applications... so frustrating! How DO people get jobs now a days???? |
