[Jobs] (no subject)

Hello jessica and everyone, 

My name is Rebecca sabo.  I am having the same problem not enough experience
on my resume.  I want to work so much and a lot of no's to me or can not
find what I am looking for on the internet.

I hope we can give out information.

Sincerely 
Becky sabo

Melisa.
I know your situation well.  However, I'm a little younger, and was born 
totally blind.  I myself am also trying to find employment for my skills and

experience and the thing I run into most is either I don't have enough 
experience or enough qualifications, or of course the old your technology 
doesn't work with our systems.  I don't mean to sound negative by any means,

but so many no's can get you down after awhile.  If there is anyone who 
works in this list doing tech support or IT, I'd greatly appreciate their 
willingness to talk to me about any obstacles they have encountered and ways

they got around them.  Any IT or technology related job leads would be 
greatly appreciated too as I myself got my microsoft and A+ certifications 
about a year ago, have constantly been looking and searching to no avail and

am ready to go to work.
Thanks
Jess
