3RD world countries.

Recently I got laid off my job like many others now a days. But like many others i was laid off with no one caring what I would do after and how would it effect me. I spent weeks trying to find another job. Because workers from third world countries come to the us willing to work for a lot less then what i request as a minimum wage i get cheated out of a lot of job opportunities.

When the they ask you on the application what your hourly wage is and you put 10$ and that person from the third world country puts 5$ of course they are going to choose that other person. OF course theirs no way to fix this problem because its a huge issue that just keeps growing every year.

Since I saw no hope I just gave up. I started my own business where no one could tell me how much your going to make a year, or how much you have to work, or a certain amount of a hours a week you have to work.

I'm not saying this is a way for everyone to solve their unemployment problem because not everyone has the same knowledge as one another, but this is the way I solved my issue and hopefully I just become more successful because I see no hope for the U.S right now.

  2. Just heard (from my neighbor) that UPS will be hiring part-timers soon.
    And you are right the only way to make it is
    self-employment, however, make sure you
    put away 15.5 cents per dollare earned for your self employment tax and medicare. Cheers!
