RE: I like "Tusk" better than "Rumours."

I just checked Music Matters, Whistle Stop is still available as are other great Blue Note reissues, though some are now $75 for the 33.3 editions, others like Whistle Stop are still $65.

Another album I'd love to get is Kenny Burrell's Midnight Blue album along with some more Miles Davis.

I did decide on this damp and cloudy morning to spin Paul Desmond's Take Ten on vinyl, well, side one while I ate breakfast.

The city is public sector as one, it's union, and two, the classified jobs, which make up the bulk of the openings generally are similar to Civil Service and require testing as part of the application process. Unclassified jobs just require you to have a reasonably close match of skills to apply. Does not mean you'll get it, but you can apply at any rate.

I agree with the unemployment rate being low and part of the issue here is many employers now don't want to train anyone if they can get away with it so a lot of employers, here anyway ask for everything but the kitchen sink in skills, 2-3 years experience in X capacity - and then lowball the pay. Minimum wage here is $11.50/Hr, just went up in January, slowly inching towards $15/Hr minimum but with Amazon deciding to add fulfillment centers with $15/Hr min for ALL positions, be it temp, contract and entry level etc will force other companies to follow suit and many recruiters, both at the temp agencies and other recruitment agencies and the Washington State WorkSource people are having to force employers to either lower expectations, or raise the pay, or both so I'm beginning to see wages begin to inch up in some cases already.

The city and county and all state owned public higher ed entities are under the state in one form or another and use the same Neogov.org entity for all their individual job listings so once set, easy to apply to any of the other entities so that's cool.

Anyway, I have skills, but it's difficult to sell them when many of them are a tad rusty. :-)

But there IS hope though!
