Furthermore, to add my 2.5 cents in here: There are many jobs in this city, true enough, but I also know several friends and friends of friends who are not hired for 'menial' jobs because they are pervceived as being overqualified. A friend of a co-worker was telling us last week how on a recent interview she was practically pleading for an entry level job the employer would not give her because she has a couple of degrees. It's a big city, but there are lots of people in it also.
