Wow I never really thought the job market or lack thereof would affect me until now. I am thinking of going back to school. I have some medical background when it comes to terminology so I have been trying to get a job in the medical field as a receptionist because that's what I do now- only not in a medical setting. I have put countless resumes out but haven't heard anything. It's tough. I'd rather get a better full time job in a field I actually like then to get a rinky dink part time job or even a full time job say as a hotel housekeeper.

I have a Master's in Computer science. And over 20 years experience in a fortune 500 company. I am not working at a job that pays less than 40% of what I made before. It is a tough world. rinky dinK pays the bills...remember that.
