You're lucky. Not my experience - sleepymt

Posted: Sep 7th, 2025 - 8:36 pm In Reply to: Forget MT - See Msg

Gone are the days when I can find a job in a paper. It's only engineering, IT/software, construction now. No more basic office jobs...you have to do the accounting/billing, event planning, scheduling, plus all the usual duties so I'm not able to get a simple office job. I don't meet requirements for jobs at home depot, target, etc...places I need to lift a certain amount or stand a lot. In the late 90s, I worked in a university filling orders for transcripts for students. I also had a basic receptionist jobs. Not anymore. They want an all-in-one and I don't fit that.

I wish they could put me in a corner away from people and just let me file or type in data. Again..those jobs are gone where I am.
