  • Hi Mark….glad to have you as a friend. I’m especially glad that you know a lot about the law and how it relates and affects unemployment today. Recently, I completed my MBA and found out how hard it is these days securing work.

    Until yesterday, I just got an offer in a totally different field and a completely new position from what I am professionally. I have gone from corporate recruiting for a mid-size national bank owned by one or Europe’s largest bank BNF making a good salary to an operation supervisor at a retail chain food and bakery company….making 1/2 the salary. It will be interesting as I start my new and different position, but who knows…maybe this could be a blessing in disquise if I end up truly enjoying the job.

    For what’s worth, I have to do what ti takes to survive this bleak economy. But, I will certainly follow up on any of your blogs or legal articles that you post. Look forward to the online relation and I hope all is well with you.

    Thanks,

    Raul (North Hollywood, CA) Sorry it took awhile to respond..i just read your email request today.

  • Here is my short bio on my Amazon author’s page:

  • Funny. Had I not been a ”poor white trash” woman from the underclass, I too could have gone into law (I wanted to become an international human rights lawyer). Except I had no way to afford the $130,000 tuition price-tag. My Bachelor degree is in mathematics with a minor in physics. My grades were pretty good, and I did very well on the GRE, the LSAT and the GMAT. Acceptance to grad school or law school was not a problem; but being able to afford the ticket was.

    After doing ”all the right things” (going into debt for a college degree plus vocational training licenses) while struggling to overcome insurmountable obstacles of the 3rd World poverty in America that has always been the reality of the forgotten and disdained Underclass — those of us from deep generational poverty who never got a chance to gain a toehold on the social escalator of jobs — I knew a long, long time ago that the whole game was rigged and that poor women from the very bottom of the socio-economic heap weren’t ever meant to have a chance in life for anything.

    Amidst the ”blame the poor” rhetoric spewed routinely by the middle and upper classes at those of us at the very bottom these past 30 years, up until only very recently; I decided that if all my endeavors to escape the living hell of deep poverty were not going to afford me a chance for a job with the opportunity to further my education and eventually go to grad school, I would at least use the education I struggled so unimaginably hard to get in order to write about the realities of classism in America and expose the injustices of poverty here. My most important book of the four which I have written, edited, and published myself, is Classism For Dimwits.
    If you read nothing else, read that book: http://search.barnesandnoble.com/Classism-for-Dimwits/Jacqueline-S-Homan/e/9780981567914/?itm=1&USRI=Jacqueline+S.+Homan

  • Glad to know that someone like you knows the law and isn’t bought by the ”kleptocrats” (love that term) and who is not afraid to stand up to the b.s. Let’s call it what it is – social injustice!

  • I used to represent employees until the kleptocrats came after me for daring to seek justice for those who were owed wages, were discriminated against, or were retaliated against for daring to complain about illegal conduct.
