In another sign of just how bad the economy and the job situation is, over 2,500 people recently applied for 150 jobs at a new supermarket which is scheduled to open in Collegeville, PA, in October. At one time I used to feel sorry for the checkers and baggers and produce stackers, but I guess not anymore. It’s steady, paying work!
In other employment news, or so I have been told…
Jeff Gordon fired his entire pit crew. This announcement
followed Gordon's decision to take advantage of
President Obama's scheme to employ Harlem youngsters.
The decision to hire them was brought about by a recent
documentary on how unemployed youths from Harlem
were able to remove a set of wheels in less than 6 seconds
without proper equipment, whereas Gordon's existing crew
could only do it in 8 seconds with millions of dollars worth
of high tech equipment. It was thought to be an excellent
and bold move by Gordon's management team as most races
are won or lost in the pits. However, Gordon got more than he bargained for!
At the crew's first practice session, not only was the
inexperienced crew able to change all 4 wheels in under 6
seconds, but within 12 seconds they had changed the paint
scheme, altered the Vin number, and sold the car to Dale
Earnhardt Jr. for 10 cases of Bud, a bag of weed, and some
photos of Jeff Gordon's wife in the shower.
