    Mosquitoe spray job. I've been to about no bs roughly 25 interviews in the last 2 months. When there's over 200 people applying for a 1 position to be filled makes it really tough to land a job.

    Wifey disagrees with us, she thinks he's laying there in the grass.

    I've been out of work before. But this is by far the worst experience I've ever had trying to land a job. I've never seen it this bad. I did however get a measly 20hr but the job is 5 mins from my house so no complaints there.

    He’s being carried - the artist added Lincoln’s wounded body to the painting to show how Lincoln was troubled and distraught over the war. :)

    Gotta expand your job search outside of exterminator jobs. Just a suggestion. I'm a truck driver by trade but there's no money in it anymore (atleast not around western Pa.) and you work more with the local positions than you do OTR. This is why I got away from the big trucks, I Love driving them but it's not worth never being home with your family, low pay for the hours you put into it and killing your body. You'd be surprised at other job positions that you'd be perfect for but never thought about or thought you'd be qualified for. Hopefully this job works out and isn't a nightmare like all the others. Best of luck to you Matt.

    On a side note I'm already going stir crazy being shut down. Knee hurts when I put any pressure on it. Hopefully it's better tomorrow.

    Oh trust me pest control jobs are not the only thing I've been applying for I've applied all type of jobs. But when you see over 200 plus people applying for the same position makes your chance that much harder. You would think cuz nj is so expensive to live in there would be better higher paying jobs but there isn't. Unless your a IT guy or been a cooperate guy.
