Employment Discrimination in the US

[nowhereman 1]

Well I think every one has given a lot of good suggestions. Honestly though, I have heard of employment agencies being very helpful to many people I know. It seems a little off to me that three different agencies all "sucked".

If you are qualified you will eventually get a position somewhere.

Good luck.

Yup, Google ACT1 or AppleOne, MANY out there screwing people over...MANY reviews on there...I'm now VERY sceptical...please remember, this wasn't all about finding a job but about EMPLOYMENT DISCRIMINATION...that's what I was asking VJ members about...

Thanks...

Well as I stated (IMO) I don't see employment discrimination. I see a tough job market & the added hurdle of not being a US citizen. I know you are frustrated, but everyone was trying to be helpful when they responded.

I do think that Canadians should learn more about their own country. I'm sure it's quite fascinating in parts.

Huh? We learned about our own country!

Oh yeah? What happened on February 30th in Canada?

Nothing. February only has 28 days.

lol.. yeah

me wonders if deadpool meant that as a trick question

Just trying to keep everyone on their toes!

Ahhhh, you have jokes. And here's me thinking you were such a serious dude.

Ooops! Looks like we may have hijacked hheaven's thread. Sorry, hheaven.

I tend to make a lot of puns. My wife said that one day I'll say so many puns that she won't be able to "take it anymore" and toss me out the window. If I had a parachute, that'd be awesome.

What floor do you live on? You might still survive even without a parachute. I read about a guy who fell I think it was 14 stories and survived. My hubby jumped out of a plane once when he was in the Marines and his chute didn't open. He survived. Spent a while in hospital though.

When I got my EAD here I registered with a couple temp agencies in the area, and one never ever ever called me back. Never. And the other I took their tests, and whatnot and they told me about an interview and gave me bad directions to the place. I spent 20 minutes driving around town while talking on my cell phone with the agency trying to figure out where I was supposed to go. She refused to give me the phone number for the company so I could get directions from them. I missed my interview and cursed the woman on the phone and told her thanks but no thanks, I'll find a job on my own. She seriously did not know street names of her own home town so could not tell me how to find the place
