We Gotta Do Something About This

In December, Dora joined the ranks of unemployed college graduates.  Her most promising job offer thus far has been a management position at Wal-Mart.  Yes, Wal-Mart.  She said they expressed interest in her because she has a Spanish degree and they needed a Spanish-speaker, to which I replied: "Dora!  They're going to have you out there beating Mexicans!!!  That's what Wal-Mart managers do!!!"

I can't stand idly by while my best friend languishes as a Wal-Mart employee in Knoxville, TN.  So, if you or a loved one has any tips for a fluent Spanish speaker that doesn't involve manual labor and/or harassing immigrants, please email me at nannygarcia@live.com.

  2. That is so, so sad. If you work hard enough to make it through college, you should automatically get a fantastic job.

    On another note...there is an award waiting for you at The Jason Show...

  3. Yeah, do you need a nanny assistant?

  4. How about tutoring until she gets something real. That way she can beat wayward teenagers as opposed to wayward Mexicans.
