Oh i hate, and i mean hate those stupid survey things. They should least have to common courtesy to call you an say anything. If you fill them in. Even if its just a bugger off you suck message. I would be happy.
Oh tell me about it. Some of these are straight up essay questions.
Like "this job may require you to use common hand tools, please list the tools you have experience with and situations where you used them"
Like wtf really? Ives used SOO many tools in my day, you really want me to list them? For reals?
And then I write a long list of tools and situations and you don't even have the common curtesy to email me saying I didn't get the job? Thanks bro.
I had one job I applied for (FAA maintenance) where they asked 5 questions. It took me all day, literally 8 hours, to fill it out. They asked about hand tools, power tools, powered equipment, safety, and productivity.
Everything they asked? All on my resume pretty much... But noooooo they wanted it in a essay form. 5000 words or more.
At least they had the decency to email me that "I was not referred"
I remember back when I was a teen that you had to actually go into the place of business to get a application and talk to the manager.
Now a days they look at you like your crazy and say "you need to go online for that" and they won't even take your resume!
It's kinda insane.
Don't even get me started about California unemployment! The money that is rightfully mine, that they take out of my paycheck, for me, when I'm unemployed, yet they find any and all reason not to give it to you.
I have been denied for so many little things it's not funny! I just gave up. It would take literally 3 months of apeals and verifications to even get the ball rolling. And that's after I had. Already applied. Then they want you to send them all of this in the mail (on my dime) so it can take even longer to get all situated.
All to get my money
Oh and good luck trying to talk to them. They are only open Monday
through Friday, 8am to 12pm with phone lines so busy, that they just say "we are too busy, goodby" and hang up on you...
Oh well, what can you do but try and laugh it off... Or move...
I vote move.
They say unemployment in CA is like only 6.2 percent.... But what they don't tell you is that's just the number of people who are unemployed and collecting unemployment! All the poor souls like me who can't get it or have run out, are not part of this figure.
So in reality, unemployment is probably double that figure.
Anywho, chin up and one foot forward. That's all you can do in times like these.
I'm more upset in the fact that I have always kept a job in Alaska, alway had a job. I move down here, for a family business, and get unemployed.
Lol
Life sure can be funny.
Anyways, sorry for the rant.
Soooooooo.....
Anyone (that won) get there X Cubes yet?
