Maybe???

This society seems to be coming to a serious stand still. With the economy continuing to plummet it makes me wonder where will I be in the next year or so. I'm already in the world of unemployment and its a hard grasp to get from under. There are so many jobs that seem to be hiring but every letter I receive back lets me know that there is someone more qualified for the position, but since I was qualified as well they will keep me in mind or on file for another six months...WELL THANKS...how nice of them. I'm sure this generic email is giving to each candidate that applied and didn't get the job but really does anyone get a email that says you were no where near qualified for this position? Or you were way too qualified for it? No one gives a personal touch any more, but yet these companies want you to spend two hours online filling out their extensive application. Think about it....its not even possible to go in to a company anymore, fill out a paper application, turn it in and then wait in the office for someone to go over it with you. Those days are long gone. Now they don't have to acknowledge that you are a human, now you are just another email in their "we are hiring" box. This new age of computers ruling the world are really coming to past. They have taken our face to face option in finding a job and I believe that many good people are being looked over for that reason. So is there anyone out there who cares about this, I'm sure it is, but who can do something about it? What if I start filling out these applications, printing them out, then going to the companies with this application in hand and telling them that hey I'm here to apply. Here is my application, review it now!!! I will probably be removed from the building and banded from getting a job there, but I'm thinking this is the jolt that may be needed to be recognized as a human, whom is seeking employment and is serious. Maybe I will be on the news for the first person who stood up against the unemployment cancer!!!!
