[QUOTE="patooyee, post: 541575, member: 483"] This economy is really tough for people right now if you have not acquired any skills. Employers willing to train a totally inexperienced person are dwindling because there is a flood of already skilled workers that are unemployed. So right now just finding someone to teach you a skill adds a level of difficulty beyond just getting a job. And without skills you just have to do what you have to do to survive. For some that is waiting tables. High school kids are now competing for the same jobs that 50+ year old people who have had failed businesses are trying to get. As an employer its a hard choice. Choose a kid who has zero skill and you are going to have to train from the ground up. 90% chance he'll quit without warning on the next sunny day that he wants to go surfing, 9% chance he'll turn out to be a mediocre long term ee, 1% chance that he'll turn out to be a phenomenal long term ee. Or choose a 50 year old guy who is just down on his luck. He probably knows how to treat a customer already but there is an 60% chance that there is a reason he is down and out. (Drugs, alcohol, anger management issues.) 30% chance he's just using you as a stepping stone for something better, 8% chance he just won't show the next day because he OD'ed and died, 2% chance he'll turn out to be a good long term ee.
