[quote=jpinpb]Oh, there are many applicants that go down there thinking it’s going to be an easy way to make money. Then the widdle away at the so many applicants b/c they can’t pass the written or physical aspects of this “easy” job.
When did you go down to apply, dave, and how did you do? Did they call you back?
How many Piggs have gone down and applied? I’m tempted to start a poll to see how many have even attempted to apply at these competitive easy and high paying jobs.[/quote]
First of all, no one is saying these jobs are “easy,” so I’m not sure why you’re using quotes. But for whatever reason, lots of folks want these jobs. It takes all kinds, I suppose.
I personally know a police officer that’s been on the force for over 20 years who said, and I paraphrase, “There are so many QUALIFIED (my emphasis) folks for each position that it’s not easy to make hiring decisions.” Straight from the horse’s mouth. That’s my data point.
No, I’ve never applied for one of those positions. I have no interest in them and, frankly, the pay is insufficient for me from an opportunity cost standpoint. But clearly lots of folks feel differently.
Have YOU applied for one of these jobs? Are YOU working one of these jobs? Enquiring minds and all…
