But when you throw in the “wandering texter” to the mix, it’s almost impossible to get [...] “In order to succeed, your desire for success should be greater than your fear of failure.” – Bill Cosby I often get asked “what’s the best job search board” or “who are the best recruiters”. There are so many resources for job search, literally, tens of thousands.

The other half is physical.” –Yogi Berra I don’t know about you, but when I hear the word “industry”, the first thing I think of is smokestacks (hence the picture).
