$ame Boat

Two little words...which carry a huge burden:

Job Search!

For the unemployed masses--10 million Americans and counting--it can be an exhausting proposition especially in our current economic state.

It matters not, what line of work or area of study you're in, nobody's buying it...because everyone is in the same boat, just trying to keep heads above water.

So when it comes to looking for work, where to go? A creative person's options are limited, even with the benefit of paper credentials.

Nothing is guaranteed in today's job market!

The demise of stalwart businesses like investment banks, newspapers and other antiquities replaced by technology, shortens the playing field; a secure position no longer exists there.

Unless one is vested in a field that is under-staffed like nursing or geriatrics, the road to employment can be long and winding!

Educator? Get in line! Food service? Ditto!

As recent statistics cited, the average American will have 14 different jobs in their working lives.

In fact, those two words--secure position--may someday become an oxymoron.

Lucky are the retired for they can exhale...er, unless their savings just went "poof!".

If so, $ee you in line!
