How hard is it, really, to find work?

Very hard unless really educated

That’s why I was asking more for peoples personal experience because I don’t really buy that.

Very….What your not hearing is how skewed the unemployment figures are. They base it on those who are collecting Unemployment Compensation not on those who ether can’t collect or have exhasted their benefits. It also doesn’t get advertised how many more “Baby Boomers” , who can’t find work have opted to take early retirement on SS. The huge amounts of social security reserved is facing a senior population having a substantial drain because of age discrimination in a very tight job market. Part of the reason I haven’t been around till this point is that I had to move from office work enviornments and reinvent myself in training for positions that aren’t as age discrimnatory to carry me through till I can access my own SS. Companies today want young, attending, or fresh out of school employees because they know they will do the work, take bs without question and conform to it, and offer them far less money then someone with on hands experience.
