Canton, Ohio.. 700 people apply for Janitor's Job!

Picked this up from another forum:

PERRY TWP. —
Plant closed. Laid off.
Lack of work.
How hungry are people for work in today’s sinking economy?
Nearly 700 people have applied for a single job as a school custodian.
Perry Local Schools have an open position — full time with benefits — at Edison Junior High School after its afternoon janitor retired. It pays $15 to $16 an hour.
The job opened last Saturday, and district officials say the stack of applications continues to expand daily.
So much so, the deadline to apply for the position was moved from yesterday to 3:30 p.m. Monday to give potential hires more time.
Many of those who have applied say they lost their previous job due to budget cutbacks by their former employer.
“A lot of people have their stories when they come in. It’s heart-wrenching,” said Superintendent John Richard.

HOPE?
Dane Steed, 51, forged blades at Heinemann Saw Co. in Canton for nearly four years until last month.
He and several co-workers were let go because of a lack of work available. He put his name in the mix for Perry custodian post.

Ken,
So you think you have it tough! LOL Come on down. We have jobs here, just not a lot of good jobs. The economy is not new to us, as we went through the Steel plants closing in past years. We are a tough brew and take our lives seriously. Although times are tough and Obama isn't going to do anything for us the next few years, we will survive. Kind of like brothers can beat each other up, but don't be the outsider trying to fight one of them. They will get the wrath of GOD! We are a tough area and all will be OK. This is an example of good people losing jobs. We are one firm who will not participate in this recession. Thank you.
