2/3/2010 - Common Purpose

It wasn't all too long ago that I was job searching. I started in August with applications at a lot of places and in a lot of industries. It got to the point that I tried to reapply at a place I had left before that I wasn't too excited about. I got Christmas work at KB Toys that was overnight and extreme part time. Finally, I got an interview with my current job in March when it was one of the first places I applied for back in August. Talk about slow HR. And this was at the beginning of the recession.

Now 2 years in, I can't imagine how hard it is to find a job. Shortly after I was hired, there was a district-wide hiring freeze, so I was one of the last hires for quite a while. Into this comes Common Purpose with a Beyonce parody called, "If I Had A Job." It's a parody of "If I Were a Boy." Here's hoping you find a job that is not mine soon.
