In reply to the discussion: Finally have work!!!!!! [View all]Bigredhunk

I'm happy for you.
I've always been pissed at how the prospective employer(s) can just sit on their hands...they don't have to call you or even send you a damn form letter. You go to interview after interview. You have to be well-dressed. You have to be on time. You have to have your resume sharp and have your game face on...have to interview well. Then you might follow up with a phone call or a letter, thanking them for the opportunity. All the time and effort you put in, and many of these places will never contact you if they're not hiring you. You're just left twisting in the wind. Pisses me off. End of rant.
Congrats!! It's the best feeling, getting a job after being out of work (for any length of time).

Employers know exactly how you feel and are sending a message. No whining or union talk.
