Bills Janes and Bobs

In the rust belt loss of work is felt as industries went overseas.. Bill's, Jane's and Bob's now pining for jobs to support their families needs. Good jobs are such a rarity and people here don't want charity, so send us some good companies please!

It's a perplexing situation. Plagued by an economic downturn, businesses are desperately moving to China. They boast about the flourishing state of the economy, but one can't help but question the veracity of such claims.

Light poetry, Nancy, but a serious problem for many these days. I pray something just right will show up for you. Smiles ~ Blessings Bill

Ford layoffs, strike. Nancy it's very sad. Plenty of Bob's and Jane's in Detroit. Wishing companies! Good luck to you. Here there putting in a new sports arena, wish you come work there!

Dear Anaya, I am in my seasoned stretch of this life and only need a very p.t. gig for extra monies. However, this area that I am relatively new to has had this ongoing problem and loses it young people due to lack of sustainable work. It is a pervasive problem to so many areas. Thanks for commenting.

They say the economy is doing well but who knows. I live in an economically depressed part of the country, yet companies are begging for employees. It's an odd conundrum

Probably unstainable wages which is why. I don't think people want to have to work two jobs, some three, in order to support their families. Unfortunately that is happening more and more here. Thanks for commenting Tom.
