Pizza Delivery
The delivery guy was way over 40. Jobs around here are scarce as shit. There are great paying jobs, but you have to be damn lucky to get one.
As for people leaving and employers paying more , I once did a contract account gig for a company where I was the only person over 30. My supervisor said it's because we pay crap. There all waiting for BIG FUCKING TELEPHONE COMPANY to hire them.
I was asked back a couple of months later and was offered a permanent job at a lot less than the contract agency was paying me. I started laughing. The HR person looked at me and I said, "look out the window. McDonald's pays more to cook burgers." She said the interview was over. I replied it was over when you said $8.75 an hour. They didn't care, as there was always another crop of just out of college kids.
