I Am Suffering From the Economy

I have a dream. A dream that someday I will be able to walk into a business, (nothing fancy or grand) and ask to speak to the manager. After a reasonable wait the manager greets me and we sit down and I am able to introduce myself, hand him my resume, see them take a look at it, relate a little with them personally, ask about a job, finish the conversation on our own terms (no interruptions), and then, maybe a week later give or take a few days, they call me back say either. 1. sorry I do not have a job for you at this time but please try back in a month or 2. OR 2. I do have a position you might want, please come back for follow up interview.


But no, not in America. Apparently this dream has long since died. Apparently this is no longer possible in this forlorn country. It is a tragic thing to live here.
