No disrespect but you really need to know how to spell. I am telling you for you own growth and future of finding a better position. Or get spell check. Please do not take this as an insult because I really do not mean it as one. I am a recruiter and would not be able to give you a job because I would lose all respect from my employer. Is the above a joke? Maybe I do not have a sense a humor.

Right on! This be very good ad vice. I am guilty as charged! About three years ago, when I first started my career in the fast food industry, I was not finding anyone who would hire me. So I called a recruiter and then another and then even another! I called three! So then I got me an interview at a place that makes tacos and stuff. Then I got another interview at the same place but this was witha recruiter that was different from the first - but it was the same taco place! So then I thought they really wanted me so I told them I wanted my minimum wage plus $.05 for every taco I sold. Okay this dose not make complete since (you gotta know it was differnet people interviewing me) - so nobody knew but me! I was worried! I ended up not getting this job, but I got work at a place that makes hamburgers and hot dogs. Turns out I did not even use a recrewter. I dont want to say where I work cuz my boss could be reading this - but I get paid good! You might try fast-ffod (no recrewter needed!)
