(snippets) The biotech training program was to be a way to jump ahead, putting him (Greg Bailey) in position to earn $17 to $18 an hour, as well as health benefits. But despite applying for about 100 jobs over the last six months, he says, he has never been invited to an interview. Last summer, a month after the course ended, he went to a job center in East Oakland and was surprised to bump into six of his classmates. He applied for a minimum-wage job at Wal-Mart, but after two interviews the person doing the hiring was fired, he said, and Mr. Bailey was told that he had to start all over — this for a night shift at a store in an area plagued by crime. Disenchanted, he stopped pursuing a career at Wal-Mart. “I’ll just look for anything now; it doesn’t matter,” he confided on a recent afternoon. The next day, he accepted a job at a warehouse for $9 an hour.

It appears your ‘Automatic Cheerleading’ code was written on the cheap. Perhaps by Faux News? Please update your programming to the latest version of ‘Darwin Was Right - Critical Thinking 1.776’ because your ‘NeoCon Domination 1.984’ has expired.
