Re: {OT:} Mitt's Heathcare plan...

I hear you.

Years ago, I answered an ad in The Hartford Courant for a lab job at the
American Red Cross.

In my resume, I mentioned my M.S. degree in Clinical Chemistry. I got no
response. Weeks later, I see the same ad again in the paper. I send out a
fictitious resume, using a pseudonym who just "graduated" with a B.S. from
UConn. TWO DAYS later, they call , asking to speak to my non existant
friend. When I confronted them as to why they didn't call ME, they told me
that they were afraid that "I'd be bored with the job".

Since you are not a liberal who wants the government to do

short-term insurance or getting onto a group coverage policy with
Aetna? I just purchased a 90-day policy with $250 deductible for
my
wife and kids for $450 while I am on probation with my new job for
90 days. Personally I can receive healthcare if I need it through
the VA Hospital but I have yet to use those services thankfully.

Since he's a conservative he should just get off his ass and get a
job that has good benefits and quit wanting the government to take
care of him! It's obvious he's just a liberal, pansy ass, lazy, drag
on society.


Sure. That's the easy solution...

Remember, I'm 50. They don't WANT to give people my age jobs. You
don't think I'd rather be working than sitting here waiting? I send
out 3-5 resumes a week...over-qualified...we found a closer
candidate... you'd probably be bored doing this...


As far as the Over-qualified (if I had a buck for every time i heard
this, I wouldn't *NEED* a job!!!) and the "you'd be bored..." TRY
ME!!!!!!



You need to get something to hold you over. I know you're good with
computers (my firewall has a hard time keeping you at bay) and you're
a
people person so how about applying at HomeDepot at the service desk?
They
sure as hell need somebody that's helpful courteous and kind. I wanted
to pop the bitch behind the counter this afternoon. She mocked me
right
in front of my wife. I'll take care of that issue next time I'm there
by myself.


I never tried the Home Depot...Best Buy, Circuit City, etc,
etc...Overqualified...

I also know Enterprise is looking for ambitious reliable and
trustworthy
people too.


Problem is, my Resume. They see Electronics at Hamilton Standard, Tech
Support at GE, and all the computer stuff and I think it makes them
nervous that I'll either get bored or want big $$$. Or stay just long
enough to find another job. I don't play like that. You treat me right and
let me do my work, I'll stay as long as you pay me! 4 Years at one place
when I first started out, 9 at Hamilton, 3.5 at GE (they pulled the plug
on Tech Support and farmed it out)

Unfortunately, since then it's been all downhill. If I apply for tech jobs
I kind of have to put the Heavy Hitters on there, but that's what scares
them...
