I have a friend that is 54 and hasn't worked a steady job in at least 15 years. He helps with the harvest for 4-5 weeks in the fall, but thats it. Otherwise, he lives off an allowance from his mother. He should be ashamed of himself but isn't. May be some depression or something else going on, but there is help avaliable for that if he wanted it. He says he wants to find a job, but several times I have practically put jobs in his lap and he finds some excuse not to take it. We have been friends since grade school, and I'm trying to help him, but am about done. Yep , mommy ruined his life and at 54 it's too late to correct it

Coonman , focus man .......what do you have to offer ?
Focus on what you can give to an employer and not on what you can get , and you will be taken care of That sounds a whole lot like you are expecting him to actually work.

Agreed! When I was in school and just after, I had two or three jobs just to be safe. A lot better than having two or three women. kept me out of trouble.

I work 2 years at this factory though express pros temp agency an was lay off for holiday shutdown, went back work last week same place. Express has made fortune off me.never had raise an no benefits, so they pull low ball stunt an say had low pay low job at low wage. A trick to get me refuse, I refuse an told them I don't work for that low wage at that distance, I just saying, the least they could do is pay unemployment, for 2 weeks, a partial claim. I report earning from other job, which come off my unemployment check, I find them to be very low down an dirty, no unployment. Check, I well not be there very long,stay about aslong as can till afford go an quit immediately , I not only one trouble temp place , I thought 62 was minuim retirement age. A shop guy told me today. That u can at 60, easy for disability reason ? Maybe I should check into it. I have severe arthritis in knee joint

coonman- have ever even checked out what SS says you're going to get at 62 or what "disability" at 60 would net you...? I don't think its going to be easy living but at least you'll have more time to trap, as long as you can afford it. I just hope you don't run out of gas money with a bunch of traps out there running. Not fair to the critters...

How many places did you look for a job at while you were off? That's how you'll be rid of the temp agency.

You said you had a bad back and leg-if so you will likely be eligible for LTD.Go see the doc and file your paperwork. If you continue manual labour you are just going to cripple yourself and may end up in a wheelchair or worse in your later years. LTD is for people like you.

Just a bad knee, nothing wrong back, just wondering about retirement at 60, no idea what shop guy talking about a t work, I thought was 62, I have nothing against early retirement , yes I check into what u get for as retirement, more than I making now, plus a pt job on top it with no deductions from ss, I have not been with jobs. Since where work at long time went out , I never look at any jobs when on plant 2 week shutdown, definately want unemployment for it wasn't my idea or volunteer for it, mandatory no work

I've never bothered to try and hire on with a company that hires through temp agencies. I always figured if they were serious about hiring good help they would do it themselves. If they tell me they only hire through an agency I cross them off the list and move on.
Work is a business arrangement. If they aren't serious then I'll find someone who is.
Mike Many companies around here hire unskilled workers only through temp agencies. You know in 90 days whether you have a real job, or it's time to move on.
