  for refrence Walmart has had me in the "applied" stage of resumee review on their shitty website for nearly a month. I don't think people quite get how bad it is. I had to wait for a spot to open up to interview at McDonalds that I'm still waiting for because the closest one was two weeks out.

    My daughter had to apply to 45 jobs before she finally got hired. I would have stopped well before that when I was a teen.

  Why would you apply for retail with a degree ? It will become worthless in a couple of years.

    Well,usually if you live with your parents and have no money, you are desperate for income of any kind. I personally worked for a steak n shake after college for a couple months.Had to lie about having a degree so theyd hire me. Not that different. You dont apply to these jobs thinking its your forever job. Its just something to get you by until you can finally get a job with some kind of career.
