I just moved back into my apartment for college and I've been looking for a job for two weeks. I put online applications in every day, and I visit the stores in my town every other day. I get shitty managers giving me the run around. They tell me to come in at noon, and when I get there, they aren't there. Employees tell me to come back in a half hour, and when I do, managers STILL aren't there.

My job last summer was a sure thing for this summer. All the guys I worked with said they'd recommend me to come back, said I was great worker, blah blah blah. I go there this summer and they have new management and they cut the budget. If they hired me they would have to raise my wage (though I would have taken a cut in pay as long as I had a job). So I didn't get hired. They never told me, I called them over and over and no one called me back. That's how I found out I didn't get the job.

I went to another place and they called me in for an interview. Everything went fine, sounded like a sure thing. They said they'd call me back in two days whether I got the job or not, I never got a call.

I'd say that all amounts to a bit more than 20 minutes. I've done landscaping the last three years for under 10 dollars an hour. I work like a fucking illegal immigrant. I'm willing to do anything for any amount of money. So this bullshit you're talking, is wrong. Go fuck yourself.

they wont spend 10-15 on a cd but will continuously buy cigarettes and weed. people have money. they just use it in different ways. and to say there arent jobs out there is a joke. theres plenty of jobs- just not ones people LIKE so they dont take em. im 21 also. but i didnt spend an assload in loans and then go oooooo nnnnnnooooooo. no one will hire me. goin to college for 4 years is very overrated and high schools should quit brainwashin kids into thinking their shit if they dont go. not everyone can work construction and not everyone can wear a suit n tie. theres all kinds of other shit out there. sometimes you gotta spend more than 20 minutes looking for a job.

I don't think its that people didn't like it, I think it's more down to not having the money... hardcore fans will have no problem saving some money up for the CD but average/new fans might not, and I don't know what its like in America but over here people have a lot less money than they used to...

Yeah man, if you smoke weed, you're gonna be on this website all the time. But if you waste your money on multiple copies of CD's instead, then you're definitely gonna make it in the real world.

i was goin to go on a real big ass rant on the guy talkin about jobs, but king rasta took some of it, so less typing for me :D

TOO MANY JOBS?????????? ur fucking.......... we have 10% unemployment.... wtf does that tell you
i applied for like 6 jobs and got no response after about a month and a half... and still waiting
and just f.y.i the illegal immigrants that work around where i live we pay sometimes up to 20-30 dollars an hour lol... but rarely. they DO like to stall a bit to get some extra cash lol, but can't say i blame them. especially when my dad doens't know their names and calls them Juan, Jose, etc.

For real. I mean, there are jobs out there, but the problem is the competition. You have college graduates battling for jobs at Wal-Mart.

I want to be a fucking rapper for the rest of my life. Of course I don't want to clean toilets at Wal-Mart, or wash dishes until 2am on a Saturday. But if they fuckin' hired me, damn right I would do it.

I honestly think the early leak, and a lot of those bad reviews that came from it, helped with the less-than-stellar 1st week sales. It'll continue to sell tho, especially once his tour starts, but I don't think it'll ever sell than K.O.D. overall.
