You misunderstodd. She didn't go back to her old job after staying home for a year, she found a new job, and her new employer went through 3 people before hiring her, because the previous three hires were total duds.

Anyway, I agree with all you said about applicants having a huge sense of entitlement. Especially the younger ones.[/quote]

PP here.  This is pretty much what happened.  The previous employees just did not take things seriously enough.  Missing work often, coming in late, dealing with too much private stuff at work (cell phone use, surfing net, homework etc.).  I was worried because I had been a SAHM for a year, but I think my employer was just happy to find someone a little more mature.  While this is not my dream job, it is definitely okay and I'm grateful to be employed.  It is a mutually beneficial situation.  As far as my dreams go, I try to fulfill those in my hobbies now.   :wink:[/quote]

Just want to point out that--your anecdotes aside--it's pretty slimy to be trying to pin 9+% unemployment nationally on "lazy American workers".[/quote]
