[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Anyone can get a job.  My guess is he will not take a job that he feels is below him.

He could go get a job at target and will in a few months would probably be an AM making decent, not great money.  But still have room to advance.  He could go get a fiancé job at a construction company, service contractor or a lumber yard.

Fedex has great benefits, even for “part time” employees.

My guess is you all have some investments, so really all you need to cover is immediate bills.   Unless you have a 10k mortgage you should have any problems covering those with a job he could get tomorrow.

I would not take this advice. Finding a job itself can/should be a full time job. There's research on potential employers, networking, interviews, etc. Time spent at Target is time he can't research and learn about other jobs interview, etc.. Of course, at some point he may have to take the Target job to keep a roof over their head. But this should be a last resort. For "tiding over" jobs He should also aim for job with flexible schedules that he can control so that he can continue to search for a job in his chosen field.[/quote]
