Guest guest Posted July 14, 2006 Report Share Posted July 14, 2006 Is this a joke? Can't believe anyone would apply for the job unless they were offering at least $30.00 per hour LOL Hugs June ----- Original Message ----- From: Ebony Most places will not say they don't hire disabled but this is a dept of labor ad here in Georgia. I have no idea where the city is located however it is in georgia. They don't come out and say no disabled but look at the description of the job -- crouch and crawl -- I didn't do that when I was healthy! This description leaves out most of us, physically anyway.

Guest guest Posted July 14, 2006 Report Share Posted July 14, 2006 Ebony, I don't believe I ever held a job when I had to crawl....except for being a mommy! Thank God I was still young and " bendy " when I had the Wild Bunch. Otherwise they would probably have tied me up in a chair like Dennis the Menace. --- In , " Ebony " <stillbreathing29@...> wrote: > > Most places will not say they don't hire disabled but this is a dept > of labor ad here in Georgia.

I saw an ad worse than that one for $7.50/hr for a counselor requiring a BA degree. So sad but wages in the South can be really pitiful in some cases even with a degree. You need a PhD just to make a decent wage or go for high demand jobs like physical therapist, computer programmer, RN, etc. But we all know the physical stamina involved for that too.

Guest guest Posted July 15, 2006 Report Share Posted July 15, 2006 Jane, LOL! I used to read the comics with Dennis the Menace. Happy to know the little ones didn't get that wild. However, being a mom is much tougher than any job out there. Ebony Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
