I FEEL THE EXACT SAME WAY!!! I've been looking for work and filling out these mindless, soulless and all around brainless apps for going on two years now and I can't even get a job at PETCO!!! I've been a manager for new accounts for AMEX before and I'm not good enough to get a simple retail job?? These apps are simply non personal and have no human side to them. I was actually told by PIZZA HUT that my app must be in the computer's green light to even give me an interview. So a computer is hiring me??? This is all so stupid and I feel that society is going to fail after all. Good luck to everyone and I'm going to learn how to hunt and build a log cabin. I'm going to the mountains. :P This is brilliant!!! I FEEL THE EXACT SAME WAY!!!

I do something similar after submitting my resume online. I look up the employers website and try to identify a decision maker and his/her e-mail address.
