62--Another biased fool with an outmoded sense of how one gets a job. You don't cold-call unless you want a certain kind of job. So fine, go pound the pavement. But that doesn't take all day every day.
"Well isn't that nice. That doesn't mean shit if nobody calls you."
Right! It's called making follow-up calls. You make 'em, then you have time to read a book, tweak your skills, or go protest. And yes, I agree that if you need a gig desperately, you take what you can get. But if you've done the work to get work, there are waiting periods.
To say that one should spend every minute of one's life seeking a job when one doesn't have one is just, simply put, stupid. You, Jak, can go pound sand. You don't know what anyone's situation is except your own. If this were someone protesting something you appreciate and approve of, I bet you'd sing a different tune. Maybe I'm wrong, but regardless, you're just being a dick if you think that there's only one way to secure a job. I've worked all kinds of gigs, and used numerous methods to get there. You have no idea what you're talking about. What are you, 72 fucking years old? The days of being able to get a job by cold-calling are pretty much over. Never mind that you don't know if protesters are independently wealthy, protesting during the day 'cause they work the night shift, between jobs by choice, whatever. You have no fucking clue, but you sure make assertions anyway.
Have fun with that. I've said my piece. You'll just come back with more ranting. (shrug) Hold on to that anger, pal. It might keep you warm at night.
