Google, Hire M.E.

Ok, ok. I know this is a cop-out post but this website and video clip made my day. A lot of you don’t follow me on Twitter so you probably missed this tweet. Check this guy out.

I was listening to part of an NPR series on the military and how the military sees record applicants during a recession. This means they can be more selective. More hires have high school degrees than ever. And the caliber of the recruits is better overall. Well that’s one positive to take away from this unemployment pain.

But you know what this means, there are options. There are opportunities. Joining the military. Becoming a farm worker—which Americans will rarely choose and don’t consider an option. Yeah, there’s sacrifice involved. You may have to move away from your family. You’re stuck in nowhere-ville. But, there are options!
