I absolutely cannot STAND it when I see a job that's up my alley, & I'm redirected to some piece of s**t page that runs on oracle! :hatred: :hatred: :hatred: :hatred: :hatred:

Never lets me sign in, never lets me submit my application, nothin'! :hatred: :hatred: :hatred: :hatred: :hatred:

Go to the office in person! Shows you have ambition. Fill out the app in the office.
Applying for a job online- you may as well work at Burger King.
I never got hired unless I stated my case in person.


These days, it just means you don't know how to use a computer.
Employers hate that.

And no. It doesn't mean that. If your qualified and good you will get the job. If your not-you won't. Politics are not gonna change your limitations. Unless you make it so.

Is it a job where you are required to use a computer? If not I would imagine an employer isn't going to give a damn if you are computer literate or not. If it is, well you have a problem there.

Yes, it's for a Radio Board Operator, part time, Kinda like on my last two volunteer positions...

I found out I'm connected to a few people at this place on LinkedIn, so I sent them a brief message about my trouble with the site, then mentioned my combined eleven years Board OPping & producing......

Hopefully they can either do something or forward it to the right person...

Dam. Quit blaming others for your job skills you don't have.
That's very telling on your mind set.

But Donald Trump will save you!  :lookingup:
Your looking for some one to save you. Not gonna happen.
THINK FOR YOUR SELF.

I ain't gonna argue on this. You are your own worst enemy.
What you write sometimes is just insane. I write insane s**t all the time. But I'm crazy just because I'm crazy.I dont blame anybody for that but me. But sometimes you go off the rails with stupid s**t.

Just don't say I don't have skills!
I know how to run the board at a radio station!

I'm sure you have skills. Why care what RC thinks? I mean, his advice to go in in person was fine, not taking that advice is fine--I don't understand how this turned into a big fight.

Because you can't just walk into a TV or radio station these days.
They attract weirdos, so they need to keep their doors locked.
If you tell them you're there to drop off your resume, you're going to get directed to their website. I get a lot of that everywhere I go these days.

Politics.  :bluesad:

Don't you just hate it when politics makes a stealth appearance in a thread where it doesn't belong?

Dam. I was not arguing. I was trying to help. f**k politics.
If you cant get a job- don't blame it on on politics. Look in the mirror and tell me what you see.
Man up.

Well you shouldn't have said they were job skills I don't have, because I did it for eleven years.
I even had to show college seniors in broadcast communications how radio worked because they had no idea.

Reason being, some little smart @$$ was always getting the license top the campus station pulled, & these same little twerps would almost do the same to us every year.

I apoligize if I came off as your stupid. You are not. But blaming others for your short comings will not get you a job. You need to look in the mirror. Only you and your outlook on life can make things better,

I'm blaming oracle because it's s**tty.
I also found what I hope to be a solution earlier today.

You're just being a jerk.
