Well, this isn't anything new. Back in march I'd left my job over a dispute with a manager concerning working a 15 hour day without a break. For two weeks I hit every restaurant in town (seeing as I was a waiter) and the four weeks following that, my job search was damped by a severe sinus infection. Little hard to get a job in a food oriented business when you're coughing, sneezing and sniffling during an interview. I came close to get a sales rep job with Helzberg Diamonds, but they hired someone ten years older than me. So the General Manager from my old job asked me to come back at the end of that six weeks for the third time, and I agreed--the same day I'd been hired at the local Foley's as a suit salesman. Now I've been suspended from my job as a waiter by the same manager that I had trouble with the last time, and haven't been able to get ahold of the GM for three days. So now I sit and wait for a call to find out whether I'm unemployed again. And I return to school in the fall, and have been denied on campus housing. Which means I now have to find a place to stay without the ability to have loans cover the cost. The real world fucking sucks at time. I may not be able to make money for the next four weeks until I move, so I may have to move now rather than then and hope to find a job in College Station before the fall influx of students comes. I'm 20 and I can't even find a job, it's not just limited to high school students and teenagers--it's the highest rates of unemployment in a decade or more nationwide. At least Clinton's administration and the Fed kept that under control unlike the current administration and Federal Reserve policies.
