Being unemployed sucks. Having a job can suck too but at least you can make more working than unemployment so you can bitch and moan about it here.

Share stories of how you were fired/laid off

Interviews you went on and other related shit.

I temped for a couple years at 2 separate company. My first was Unilever and it was fucking awesome. Very flexable with the hours and tons of college chicks working in Customer Service. Problem was that unless you were younger than 25 and a woman you had no fucking chance of getting hired permanantly.

The ratio was 80% women to 20% men.

Dude, wtf am I gonna say about that shit.

Being out of work blows hard and not something ( I like) to make fun of. You're mistakes are your own and now you're placing a greater value on the decisions you made when you were younger. We all do that.

Please remember that I offered to help you with your resume so there are people looking out for you. -No Homo

I was fired last Friday and my office packed up and moved back to the United Kingdom as a cost cutting measure.

Even McDonald's isn't hiring

I would go back to McDonald's in a fucking hearbeat. I never had more fun in my life working (Outside of the Army)

Army is my choice, but not the wife.

Look, I've been unemployed but never fired many, many times.

I've hired dozens as well as firing as a manger. I am more than happy to help anyone here who wants help with their resumes or where to search for jobs.
