i awoke this morning to the phone ringing, it was my mother calling to ask me if the co i had applied for last week had gotten ahold of me.. i said no , she said they called her asking for me.. she gave them my cell. but she did not know it well and gave them the wrong number .. but i did not get mad at her at all tg ...
so i called them back and talked to someone else she took my number and said they would call me.. this job pays great @ 12.25 hr.. they have offices all over the united states too if anyone wants the name e-mail me.. as they do hire alot..
or if i get enough request i can add it on my next post... if im allowed :)

Hi laken,
Yes this recession is real bad in west and i hear stories daily about someone getting laid off in USA or Europe. So i must congratulate you for getting such a nice paying job and i hope more and more companies start hiring people and recession end soon. Though it has been good couple of years for Indian economy but if it was good economy years all around world then our economy would be real good too.

I sincerely hope you get that job. The less people out there looking for a job the more possibility for ME! Kidding. I'm praying for you. Of course I would love to know who is hiring! Please tell me! This is a horrible recession. My in-laws think this is a depression it's so bad. As if it's up to a vote! There would be many more out of a job, inflation would be much worse, companies would be bankrupt and closed as would tons of banks. Many more would be waiting for their paycheck only to find out payroll would never be met. Good luck dear!

This is a great lead! It is all over the country, just not within hundreds of miles of my address. Minnesota is about the only state it's not in! Oh well, all in good time. Thanks again! By the way that is a fairly new industry, driven primarily by the growing elderly population. Things are a changing in more ways than one. Thank God.

First off, congratulations! In this difficult economic times, there is no greater news than being called for an interview for a possible job. And I've read on here too that they did manage to get a hold of you for the interview.
I hope you get the job. And I hope this could be the start of more good news down the road. Goodluck!

Wow really good I am surprised that you got the job so easily because where I live you pretty much have to compete for the jobs because it is one tough market right now and it's no fun because I want to have a job so that I can have a phone for like the first time ever it would be so cool to finally be able to have one so that I can communicate with my friends more and I won't feel so left out. Most people now a days have a phone, but not me and I guess people look at me weird for not having one and I don't like that. If I were to find a job I would do my very best at it so that I can make money so that I won't have to live with my parents and so that I can start moving up in life.
I really do wish you the best of luck work your hardest and be nice to the boss because you don't want to get fired so be very kind. In jobs one always has to be kind and not lose their cool it's kind of silly how people lose their jobs so quickly just because they said something so yeah be careful of that.

thank you i will keep that advice in mind i went for a long time w/o a cell phone we always had a home phone becasue of the magic jack its so cheap just 20.00 a year
and the 19.95 i pay for internet a month aint bad..
but as for cell i got mine at wal mart for 45.00 i later added my daughter for 70.00 a month but my husband dont have one yet... my daughter does not live with me and had the baby so i gave it to her.. i first had my hubby on it and he was calling other people on his break at lunch when we were having problems so i said im not paying for it and he dont want to pay for his own so he dont have one my daughter appreciates hers alot...
happy mylotting

thank u very much i appreciate that ... since its a 2nd interview i feel like they may offer me the job.. but if they dont i have a back up plan so im not too worried im gonna open me a small shop of women and girls clothing in the peddlers mall.. in my town.. so i like either idea i think the shop would be less stressful
for me and something i could enjoy... with my mom..
