Help Wanted Ads

Help Wanted Ads


The Sunday newspaper at one time was overflowing with want ads a few months ago. This Sunday's want ads looked like a Tuesday edition. Usually you could find 10 or 12 car dealerships looking for the next super salesman. This week only 2 were looking for the ultimate car salesman.


I know the Internet has diluted some of the advertisers but even the job sites are not overwhelmed with advertisers. Times like now might call for drastic action. I might have to actually get up, get dressed in job hunting clothes and go place to place looking for a job.


Today, I will call some of my contacts and gets some job leads from them. Then I will make sure my job hunting duds are ready for action.


To get that $13 a week stimulus from Obama lama ding dong, I will need a job.

I am sure the porkulus package will have a job for me. Hmmm I'm not a heavy equipment operator, I'm not a construction worker, I do not sell electronic equipment to the medical industry, I 'm not an auto worker, I am not a bank manager or wall street broker, but I would be happy to take one of those 500,000 a year jobs saving a bank. Not that I could save a bank but the guys in charge right now have not done so well.


Then again I can apply for my social security and apply for foods stamps.
