Thats Depressing...

Just read an article saying that there is a new level of discrimination in the US not based on your ethnic background but that you are unemployed are not. Some companies are even saying they won't even consider a person if they are unemployed. And since most of the unemployed are minorities or woman they can discriminate against them and get away with it.
Speaking of employment I had my interview yesterday but will not find out till Monday.
