best of luck to all, this downturn is effecting everyone, young an old.
I do some volenteer work for a group in my community called senior services resource.
Am seeing long retired people in there 70s and some in there 80s, coming in, needing help to get back in the work force, lawyers, doctors, plumbers, carpenters, electricians.
These people are a treasure trove of experiance, yet getting them work is almost impossible.
Granted the future depends on the young, sad that they cannot find work.
You need to be creative, you need to go after ANY work, even at far lower wages.
The cream comes to the top, if your the best of the best, work will come to you.
Just be creative, do whatever you have to do, I did.
