- aivzdog, on 07/14/2009, -0/+8Some things you think cant be compared but suprisingly they can.

- 3tcp, on 07/15/2009, -0/+5Not a very uplifting article for the people who are unemployed
- tgc1, on 07/15/2009, -0/+4Don't take your work home with you.
- BxBoy, on 07/15/2009, -0/+2Where's the part about getting SCREWED over by someone less qualified?
- ds143, on 07/15/2009, -0/+2i was going to digg this, before i saw the source
- sjbdallas, on 07/15/2009, -0/+2Oddly, both usually end with me curled into a fetal position while crying myself to sleep.
- MasterInsan0, on 07/15/2009, -0/+1Funny how you call *****, and then spew a bunch more ***** yourself.
The reality is, unemployment is indeed unattractive, but so long as you're not flipping burgers, your job is probably fine. You don't need to be a lawyer, doctor, or anything like that to get laid, and lying about it to make yourself seem better is a ridiculous idea. What's she gonna think when she gets to your apartment/house and sees your tiny 19 inch TV and cheap-ass Wal-Mart or Ikea furniture? It will be obvious very quickly that you're no doctor. I would hate to see what kind of miserable conditions you grew up in that taught you that all women were gold-diggers. Don't get me wrong, they do exist and often they're the irresistibly cute ones (they know this and use it to their advantage), but most women aren't. They want you to be stable, yes, but that's because they don't want to end up being your "sugar momma", much like you don't want to end up being their sugar daddy.
There is no real trick to getting laid. Being confident (but not arrogant) and being funny helps a lot, and so does being reasonably good-looking, but in the end it's hard to say what exactly will influence a woman to sleep with you, or more importantly, be in a relationship with you. But then again, this is digg, everyone here tends to think they're the kind of studs that don't need silly things like relationships...and then wonder why they end up jerking off every night to midget horse porn.
That's one of the unspoken "lessons" in your comment: that it's okay to lie about what you do so long as it gets you laid. "Answers that tend to produce results"? Seriously? You know what makes a woman bolt faster than not having a job? Being a ***** liar.
God, I'm a misogynist and even I'm pissed off by your comments. It's no wonder women put up impenetrable walls that you have to break through. ***** retards like you make it harder for decent guys like me to get a date. - babyheadout, on 07/15/2009, -0/+1I agree. After both, I call my best friend and tell him or her the letter grade I would give myself.
- Gustuf, on 07/14/2009, -0/+1#3 Date or Interview - Punctuality Counts!
"Don't show up with a tray-full of mud lattes when crickets are still chirping, if you're interview is at 1 pm." - Jimbob200, on 07/15/2009, -0/+1The article made that assumption and it makes the introductory paragraph fail. As we have seen now, people with everyone from four year to a master's are looking anywhere for work.
- cubicledrone, on 07/15/2009, -0/+1"You just graduated and believed a job where you say "Hello, my name is Chris," was not good enough for you."
So your position is that people with four-year degrees should work in entry-level call center jobs? Now that's innovative and resourceful use of educated people! - mike23w, on 07/15/2009, -0/+1"Lawyer, Investment Banker, Doctor, Personal Trainer, Massage Therapist. "
People without these jobs seem to be dating quite a bit.
Maybe it's you and not your job that's the problem. - NJank, on 07/15/2009, -0/+1sure it can. you just haven't been watching the right videos.
- cubicledrone, on 07/15/2009, -0/+1Here's your cover letter:
Dear Liar,
I have forwarded my resume to your word search bot as part of my ongoing campaign to build the world's biggest collection of "***** you" letters.
I have a college education, years of experience and steady advancement in my career, but you and I both know I could be Linus Pauling and you'd strain yourself into a world record asscramp finding a reason to disqualify me.
Let's face it, *****. You want cheap and I need clean water and more than 500 calories a day. So let's split the difference. Ram your job up your lying cheat ass along with whatever else you've stolen today, and I'll hire all the people you reject. Fair enough?
You have a real nice day now.
Sincerely,
The American Job Market - tgc1, on 07/15/2009, -1/+2This is *****.
The only answer you need during your "interview" with a date is a good answer to the one and ONLY question that women give a ***** about. That question is ALWAYS "What do you do?" Do you remember EVER interacting with a prospective mate and NOT being asked that question? That's right, you haven't. That is the ONLY question they give a ***** about. Not how big your dick is, not that you like to play checkers, or go hang out with your buddies on friday nights. WHAT DO YOU DO?
If the woman isn't confident about what you do, she's more than likely going to bolt, giant penis or not. Answers that tend to produce results are Lawyer, Investment Banker, Doctor, Personal Trainer, Massage Therapist. Women want to know they're going to get something MORE than what is in your pants. They tend to want a provider. If you respond with "Ii'm looking for work" or "I'm between jobs" or something that even REMOTELY suggests you don't have any money... well sorry fella, better work on that A game 'cause that pussy is going home with someone else tonight.
The only time that question doesn't seem to matter is when we are too young to realize it matters. When girls are girls and boys are boys. When you and your prospective partner are still in highschool (or younger) and you have your whole life ahead of you and no ***** cluttering up the works. Adult life ruins dreams. When those dreams are ruined, reality smacks you in the face. That is why you can't get through a date without that question coming up. If your prospective mate doesn't ask you what you do -- It's pretty safe to say she's a keeper. - Pentagarn, on 07/15/2009, -1/+1This needed better editing, or just better writing. What's with some of the bad sentence structure and grammar? Here's one example:
"Don't show up with a tray-full of mud lattes when crickets are still chirping, if you're interview is at 1 pm."
The listings also stop really making comparisons to sex after #5 or so. It's like that was an afterthought to a generic job search advice column. - EdgarG8, on 07/15/2009, -0/+0#9) Bullsh***** your way out of the age old question of "where do you see yourself in 5 years?".
Job Answer: Hopefully if I do great I'll move my way up perhaps in management and contribute my all to the company.
Job Reality. I'm going to come in on time for a month and after that I'm not going to care and I'm hoping you guys don't fire me for my incompetence.
Dating answer: If all goes well we can go out on another date and see where we can take it from there.
Dating reality (In your head): Damn I wonder what you look like with your top off hmm, panties or no panties? - cubicledrone, on 07/15/2009, -0/+0"people with everyone from four year to a master's are looking anywhere for work."
Yep. That's the free market in the land of opportunity. Proof that America has failed to utilize it's brightest and best educated people. Cheap is the priority now. Not achievement or quality. Cheap. - Jimbob200, on 07/15/2009, -1/+1"You just graduated, and that tech job you had lined up got outsourced to 10 people overseas who just took an English pronunciation course to learn how to say, "Hello, my name is Chris," with an American accent."
No. You just graduated and believed a job where you say "Hello, my name is Chris," was not good enough for you. Upon that trend becoming established, it was shipped out to a person overseas who took an English pronunciation course, leaving you to realize as you survived on mac n' cheese that it was, in fact, good enough for you. You then cursed yourself. - isunktheship, on 07/14/2009, -5/+2Either way you're feasting for $5..
