I love watching martial arts in the movies, particularly when the battlers agreeably slow down to take turns to hit each other.It’s so, so cooperative, and so, so much unlike everyday life!Nobody in a real fight “trades blows” strike for strike and kick for kick, until on

I also found out that if a job is advertised online employers end up getting approximately 100-150 resumes....tough competition!

Great, so you can repipe a home or seal a leak in virtually anything made, so what? Is it enough that you and maybe a few of your employees are in business and pretty darn good at what you do? What is going to ultimately make you successful? Your accountant, insurance agent, landlord,

There is something to be said for "pounding the pavement" although it takes time and energy. The employer gets to see you in person and the odds of remembering you increase.
Networking - letting all your friends and family know you are looking helps. Knowing someone in a company can help in getting your foot in the door also.
