A line of job hopefuls estimated at 1,000 snaked around the Sam Nunn Federal Center in downtown Atlanta today — even though no hiring and no interviews were taking place.
According to the AJC, the job seekers stood in line for hours to attend a federal job fair where information and flyers were being passed out.
“It’s sad that all these people, many of them out of work, are in this line,” said Russell Lohr, 37. “It’s definitely a sign of bad times.” [LINK]
