Who said I have a lousy attitude?  Other then the pay
cut, and longer commute this is a good job for me.  It
is a small company, which I prefer.  The company deals
with high-tech toys, which is something I enjoy.  And
there is a lot of potential for the future here.  I am
grateful to have this job, and excited to be working
here.

Kick down doors?  Your an employer.. How do you
respond to someone who sends you a letter, or calls
you looking for a job?  I can tell you how MOST people
deal with it, they ignore it!  I know, because I have
been sending those letters for the past 18 months.  I
listen to people tell me that crap the whole time,
that I have to go out and GET the job.  It is an easy
thing to say when your not the one unemployed.
