Pursuit of Happiness Question?

I watched this last night and i loved it. I have bought the deluxe edition from my local target. I havet watched the extra disks nor listen to the book on CD yet. I think he didnt get a part time job, because he was trying to sell those scanners, and then his other job was looking after his son. When he was doing the internship,he really had a full time job, then looking after his son and trying to sell the machines and with them sleeping on the buss i dont think he really would of had time for another job. I love this movie and cant wait to listen to the book.

I thought about this too but I figured that maybe he felt he couldn't apply because he's always hopeful that he can still sell all of his "machines". Perhaps with all the walking around and offering the item to doctors and other medical professionals, he always didn't have enough time plus he was always bothered by a lot of problems including domestic ones.

Well, he actually had a job selling his scanners. Unfortunately, he didn't do his research before he invested in that juncture. I don't know why he didn't get a job otherwise. I know that some people have a hard time getting work for various reasons. I think his lack of a college education was a big hindrance. He was obviously a hard worker when he wanted to be, so anyone who would have hired him would have been happy.

I think it was because he invested too much in the machines and he gets that constant reminder of being failure when he sees them so he wants to get rid of them as soon as possible. And I don't think he would have gotten a better job with his current status. I really loved this movie! Such an inspirational tale. Chris Gardner's the man!
