Now who does this company think is going to apply for this job? Let me guess, I'll fax them my resume from my current employers fax machine. I'm the only one who ever uses that damn machine anyway. How many of you unemployed people have a fax machine in your home? I would think that unemployed people do not have upper five figures at their disposal where they can spend this unneeded money of using the fax service at the local print shop. Now there are services that have what is called internet fax but they still charge for this.
My wife and I, even though we have income, are still living paycheck to paycheck because after paying bills there are still bills that we owe and yet we have no personal money left. I have been told to look for additional work in the paper but a lot of these jobs want me to spend the money that I do not have to fax them my resume.. Some ads to allow me to just mail in my resume but the only problem with this is the number of people mailing in a resume to this ad chances are mine will never get opened.
Phone companies need to give everybody who is paying for service the use of a free fax number. They are already giving me unlimited calling all over the USA for one fee of only about $40 per month. Have you ever signed up at one of those job boards like monster or Careerbuilder? You can answer ads at no cost unless you want one of their optional services where they send your resume to a list of job recruiters. I still have not discovered any of these job boards that will do this for their users as a courtesy.
With gas prices nearing towards $4.00 per gallon I am still surprised that unemployed people can still afford to drive their cars. If I had a bike I would be riding my bike everywhere. This would save me a lot of money plus it is healthier. Where to companies, the ones that are looking to fill a position, get the idea that everybody has a lot of extra money to play with. Another issue that pisses me off is after applying for a job the company cannot give you any sort of decision or time frame. I had one job today that on Friday they said they still had not filled the position yet today I was told that the position had been filled a week ago.
It is looking like the only thing I may be able to depend on is if I sign up with a temp agency and only work temp jobs from now on. I just don't have the additional money to play around with to get the better results.
