I was clean dressed and eager but they basically can take a shit in your face and laugh. Even fast food is not really hiring.

O.K., I know it sucks to look for work in a sour economy. The sad fact is that companies can afford to be very picky when they <b>do</b> have an opening. The "BS", that you describe, goes for adults, as well. I can't remember how many times I heard the same thing over the years. It's all part of the job search process. I know that it sucks, but it's all part of the game. In so far as fast food not really hiring...*sigh* I'm really having a hard time buying that. But, then again, odds are, I'm not in your area. Just keep your options open.
