"Hard 2 find a job"
  by Diemenz


Its hard to find a job
Its really heard to find a job
When you have a job
Even worst when you work 2 jobs

See first things first you have to look in the job classifies
To find a job that you can qualify
But when you look at the job requirements you see
You need 3 college degrees
5-10 years experience
That when you sit and calculate
You cant qualify for a job until your retirement age

Step 2 work on your resume
Oops wait before your work on your resume
You got to work on your cover letter page
Which explains everything on your resume
Then you need you career summary career objective
Nobody reads in but HR's still claim that they want to see it
Then you need your previous job
Your previous job position
And your previous jobs positions job description
Then your skills
Your college name, your GPA, your accolades
Some how some way you need this to fit all on 1 page
But if you have any space left
References upon request

Then they call you in on the interview
But before the interview then make you do a job application
Which ask you for everything on your resume?
Then they make you do an aptitude test listed with the dumbest answers ever
To see if you are smarter then a 5th grader
Then they bring you in on the 1 on 1 interview
Where they ask you the dumbest questions every
Like, why where you terminated from your previous position
Because they where firing
Why do you want to work for our company?
Because you're hiring

Its really hard to find a job when you have kids
Because little kids are expensive
Then screw up your salary and don't pay any benefits
Then they get sick, screw up your benefits and chew up your salary
So when I have kids I'm a tell them life is hard
For you to survive this household
You're going to need a part time job and it's hard to find a job

So when they call you in for interview number 2
Even though you need money don't tell them yes tell them thank you
So who runs the interview you do
So you tell them increase that salary 5 grand
You want 3 weeks vacation package
You want a 90/10 benefits package
So you finally have a job you make more money then working 2 jobs but you know whats
harder then finding a job
When you have a job even worst then when you work 2 jobs
Trying to keep a new job

True and funny from beginning to end...do you work part time as a comedian? Love your sense of humor.
