Remind self job hunting sucks

77% | 3

Ok, after a good 2 months of looking and only 2 job interviews I am almost positive that job hunting thoroughly sucks.

I am almost positive monster.com is not worth the time it takes to apply for jobs on it.

I just wanna do IT work, I just want a job. Is that too much to ask? I don't want to drive 200+ miles a day to work. I just wanna pay my bills like a good little citizen should.

Note to self, next time you have a programming job interview prepare to be humiliated with stupid questions that you can't possibly answer with any coherent answer.

I'm negative by nature and if you think this is bad wait until I am behind 2 months on my car payment...

No wonder people shoot their bosses and fellow employees when they loose their jobs!

Okay I must say the questions I got asked on my (so-called) programming interview yesterday were rather stupid. I won't go into the nature of the questions but needless to say they would not have gathered much information on my skill level by what they asked me. Though they did determine from the answers I gave them that I am a novice. Seeing how I don't consider myself a novice I figured I would issue a challenge and have them give me an assignment (as-it-were) to do so that I could demonstrate that I am capable of writing ASP.NET / C# code for them. I issued the challenge earlier today, hopefully it will be answered otherwise I suppose it's all a moot point.

Well shit, jobs are a dime a dozen right? Yeah...Right!
