It is harder to get a job at this moment. I even saw an article Saturday (Nov. 1) about “ghost jobs,” posted job opportunities that do not actually exist within a company but are used to either scare current employees into working better or to inspire investors.

Let us pray for all those job searching, including Jimmy’s friend.
