I hope Blacklisting , after what they did to the LA actors decades back in the McCarthy hysteria, is outlawed , nationwide, but i doubt it

Have you looked at all the job postings on Craigslist and how many (transport:SF limos and tour buses is my training) job postings ask for a resume and a DMV printout, but do not mention the company hiring by name?


Nor the pay and benefits?


Sometimes there is this long list of 'what we expect'.  And then a code number to reply to. Nothing else. No company name so you can check on their reputation and website. No pay and benefits to see if it is average or below average.  Just 'don't call us'.


Now is that any way to treat unemployed workers?


It is not only workers having a hard time now with layoffs still in the 1000s and factories closing to move overseas. But the unemployed , many are told up front , to not apply for job openings !!


We have so much to thank the 'too big to fail' bankers for.
