WWFF Introduction

Hello and thank you for visiting WWFF. I look forward to our friendship and mutual dealings as I develop this blog.

My name is Jeff Fleming. I am no expert in job searching but try every day to become more of one as well as a pupil on the most effective way to find a new job. I want to hear from you on what you have done to find your past and current jobs. In addition, I want to provide what you need to "keep going" when the search gets tough. Job searching can be the most challenging, frustrating and even the most exhilarating experience ever. To land the job of your dreams is all of our goals. I found mine, now let's help you find yours.

My posts will have a common theme to them. They will be either about job searching, coffee or even small business development. These are my favorite subjects so why not go from one to another as the wind blows.

Why title this blog "Will Work For Food"?

Glad you asked. Job searching is challenging in and of itself. Many times it feels like you are just "begging" the hiring manager, HR person, secretaries, gatekeepers, and even the job boards and postings to just "GIVE YOU A CHANCE". We all just wish someone would just give us a chance and pay us well while doing it. The entire process feels like "begging" so I wanted to title the blog in order to keep me reminded of a simple way to describe how we may feel during the search process.

In no way do I want to demean those who are out on their luck and in the streets because of mental illness or bad circumstances. Maybe this blog could be an inspiration to those of you who walk by the down-and-outers as an encouragement to assist them far beyond a little change in their coffer. We are all just a short trip away from being down-and-out ourselves so let's pay respect when it is due and find a way to do more.

Today I am at Starbucks drinking a tall, half-caf. I am not a big fan of Starbucks but they do have wireless access in virtually any city I go to. More of that later.

Let's get started!

Jeff
