I was an MIS er in a CH and the GIS software SUCKS to work on from a geek perspective. Good luck.

I have no idea what the above means, but good luck to all of you looking for work. I was laid off in January and said at 64, that's it. I'm retiring. Stopped at a store on my way home from SS and the woman, who had just opened, said "Wow! You retired? Do you want a part time job?" That was in April and love it - work 15-20 hours a week. 1 mile from home. Things will work out!

Congratulations, KJ! This is such good news!!! I, too, got the job I interviewed for and I love it. It's only part-time, but it's 30 hours per week!!

Congratulations to you, too, Dorothy -- not only for landing a job, but actually loving it, too!!!!

The thought of job hunting terrifies me - not only are my skills rusty, but my mouth is not!

I tend to be truthful - I've finally learned that "not saying" is not the same as lying, but --- and sometimes that goes over like a foreign object in the punch bowl. I don't do "suck up" very well.
