Heh. that'd pay much more. but no, sadly.

I put up stock at a local grocery store. I get plenty of exercise, but it is far from fun.

Well, at least you have a job. Some aren't so lucky.

A job with an exercise program! What a benifit!

Ain't that the truth.

I had one of those a couple of weeks ago. I worked 12 hours and walked or stood for about 10 of them. Lost about 10 pounds.

Maybe I should look for a temp agency in my area.

I used to do that. I liked being the receiving clerk much better though.

Seriously, nothing wrong with getting a "grunt" job at a retail store or such. It's still money, and sometimes the discount can be quite nice. I worked at Target for a month while I was between jobs last year, and the discount was worth almost as much as the pay. Of course, I was there to supliment unemployment. I'd try to stay retail and avoid fast food, but any job is generaly better than no job, and you'd be supprised how much your disposition changes. I interviewed a lot better when I had that job than when I didn't, just out of feeling better about myself.

It only works if they find you work. I've had all of the ones I worked with find me a job but they never work out. Give it a shot. It could work out for you.

Another concern. If you have any Katrina victims in your area. You might lose out to them when applying for a job. So many came to Atlanta and I hear they want to stay. That means more people looking for work.

Don't get me wrong. I feel for them. I could not imagine what they went through. I need a job almost as bad as they do.

I am aware of "grunt" jobs and have had several in the past ten years. What I did at my last job is preventing from getting 'real' employment. I'm lucky I'm not behind bars, and I do not care to discuss it. Anyway, a temp agency might help me out as the Holiday season is drawing close.

Well, retail work is generaly legal.

Look around at both. You can always say no.
