This is the problem with the economy right here. You cant find a job yet thousands of people cross the border every day and still consider the US to be the land of opportunity. The last 3 summers I worked 40 hours doing labor for a landscaping company. All the men I worked with were from El Salvador, and my boss told me that whenever he tries to hire a white guy they always quit after a couple days. Our economy will pick up when people get off their lazy spoiled asses.

Yeah it is. It would be like a last resort type thing. Only thing keeping me here is my girl. All my friends are moving to chicago and all sorts of different places and I dont talk to my family so there really is not anything here for me.

i find getting jobs pretty easy
look presentable, not like a dirty, smelly, stoner hippy. when you fill out applications, ALWAYS talk to the managers. ALWAYS ALWAYS ALWAYS. i cant stress how many times they say 'we're not hiring'. and i fill out an application anyway, and talk to the manager. (same way you would spit game to a girl, sell youself). and after talking the manager is like, well actually i probably could use someone over here....
if you really need a job dont be picky, walk up and down the main streets in your city and fill out applications EVERYWHERE. go to temp services.
if you cant find a job and you live in a decently big city, you suck.
ive had 3 jobs in the last 2.5 months.

Did that shit for like 5 years. I'll get a new job in one from time to time and just want to go to where all the cleaning shit it and swallow the bleach after like 2 days there. It's actually becoming harder around here to get jobs in restaurants nowadays. Shit's crazy. But yeah, I fuckin abhor that shit.

thats my point man.
every job ive got recently, the people are always like 'no we're not hiring'
and then i hand in the application, and like TALK to the manager, good like. and even though they 'wern't hiring' the manager seems to make room for me.
you gotta shine dude, stand above the rest. your right, finding jobs are hard. especially if you just blend in. you gotta make yourself seem better then the competition to get a job.
oh, and lie about job history, and give numbers of your friends if they call and check. make your job history sound really good for the job you want, and warn your friends.
and SELL YOURSELF most of all

Detroit is the most depressive city in the country, of course you cannot find a job there. Sell your body or get out.

Yes it kind of is in a way. I had a thought that if Detroit could do something along the lines of Oakland California then maybe the Downtown area at least can become nice again.
