Senior Unemployment Rate Hits 31-Year High

Senior Workforce (50+) - Looking for you and wanting to help you find a job or new career!

Greetings!

My name is Charles Brooks (age - 65) and I have come to the conclusion that the 50+ workforce has a "Great deal" to offer any employer. So much so I've decided to start a business to help this "Prime" resouce find jobs and/or new careers.

I can recall when the senior employee, with all the experience, loyalty, integrity, tenacity, heart, determination, etc. was force out by businesses and corporation. After many years these businesses are coming to the conclusion, THAT MOVE was a tragic mistake. Now the country is finding a "brain drain" because of all these great people were "force out of the workplace, at least an attempt to do so, but "We're BAAAaaaack"!!!

I want to "DO" something about this situation even in the midst of our nations serious economic challenges. I'm not fearful of what might happen. The media (generally) paints a doom and gloom picture BUT that is not the whole truth. Sooner or later we as Americans will regain our footing and begin, once again, to rise above this situation. Americans are not quiters !!!

I KNOW there are jobs across the country for the "50+" workforce, it's just a matter of finding them and matching up the right employee for the right job. It sounds simple but I realize it might not be that simple however, sitting on our butts and wringing our hands and saying "it's all over for me", is absolutely not the truth; we are much better than that.

Here's what I would like to propose: 1) employers; send us your opening positions in your businesses. It might be you need a mentor to help better train your existing employees or seriously consider the GREAT value and proven success/experience of the 50+ workforce. You might find this is exactly who and what you need. 2) "50+ workforce, send us your resumes and tell us what your looking for. It might be you just need to earn more money or possibly you want to do something you have always wanted to try but never had the opportunity or maybe you want to start your own business (possibly co-op with others), who knows!

What do either of the two groups have to lose: NOTHING! In fact there is everything to gain.

Let us hear from you. My name and email are below. Maybe you want to mail us your resume and information. If so send it to our mail address: Brass Ring, P.O. Box 4665, Marietta, GA, 30061

Remember the phrase (at least the 50+ workforce will): "There is nothing to fear but fear itself". Granted, we have problems AND we have solutions. Let's get busy with "resolutions".

Here's to the greatest comeback America ever made with the "50+" crowd leading!

God Bless and all the best!
