This is just on my mind. As some of you know I a recovering addict/alcoholic. I'm very active in a couple of different 12 Step programs. There are a lot of younger guys that are living in halfway homes and looking for work in the programs as you could imagine. We have a entry level position opening that is perfect for one of these guys. When I got to the meeting last night I went up to a group of the younger guys and told them we were looking to hire someone. They said this guy Erick needed a job. I know the guy and he has been sober for about 6 months. So I go up to him and offer the job. His response was no because he just got approved for un-employment The 1st thought that went through my mind was, I wouldn't want someone with that additude working for us anyways. I didn't say that but it did make me think about alot of things wrong with some people (kids) today. I'm not mad and didn't loose any sleep over this just thought it might be a good topic for discussion or rants
