Job Interview and the economy tanking...AGAIN!!

So I had a job interview today and everything seemed to go ok :)  Job doesnt start until Sept 1st but at least its something. Filled out 2 apps this evening both for call center positions and I've got another interview lined up.  Things are starting to roll of course they would be rolling faster IF the stinking S & P hadn't downgraded our credit rating!! Seriously it was painfully obvious yesterday morning when reviewing wanted ads that that dumb credit rating didn't just hurt the government but mine and many other people's job prospects!!  Evil evil credit when are we just gonna get rid of it completely?
