Reaching the end of a job interview, the human resources person asked the young MBA fresh out of MIT, "And what starting salary were you looking for?" The candidate said, "In the neighborhood of $125,000 a year, depending on the benefits package." The He person said, "Well, what would you say to a package of 5-weeks vacation, 14 paid holidays full medical and dental, company matching retirement fund to 50% of salary and a company car leased every 2 years - say a red Corvette?" The engineer sat up straight and said, "Wow!!! Are you kidding?" And the HR person said, "certainly,--- but you started it."

If you’ve been unemployed for a while, you probably know how mind-numbing unemployment can be. Instead of just waiting around for the “perfect” job opportunity, you should just take a job that will get you by. A flexible part-time job means that you have the opportunity to check out new full-time jobs as they come up, but it also means you have something to stay busy and pay the bills. Delivering pizzas, mowing lawns, or walking dogs – none of these is beneath you. As long as you’re working to put food on the table and a roof overhead, you can be proud of your accomplishments.
