Futile

That's exactly how I feel about job searching/applying/resume dropping anything pertaining to job hunting.

I can't get a bloody job. There's no point in trying because if, and I mean IF I happen to luck across an interview, in the economic climate right now saying I was laid off, when it comes to that in the interview, is just as much of a scarlet f*****g letter as telling a potential employer I was terminated. whether I was laid off for something I did or some financial or busines related shortfall the company had. So whichever way it's painted, as I was laid off when Wal(ret*d)*Mart pulled Sam's out of Canada last winter(winter '08-'09), because I was laid off because ret*d*Mart decided, in their oh so infinite wisdom, focusing on the super center format was better for them in canada than keeping sam's going(which had been f*****g tanking since they opened up their pidly ass 6 location roster[all of which were in ontario) I s**t out of f*****g luck for finding a job and besides that nowhere is looking to take on new employees because of the current economy.

try some other jobs, walmart is bad to their employes. can you walk dogs, or dog-sit?

Instead of calling it laid off, say "I was unfortunately downsized." It sounds nicer. Retail is a brutal market to work in, after the holidays even without economic problems there are less positions to be had. Plus customer's often really suck. ;p

Wishing you better luck!
