If that doesn't work, just check the papers...they usually have something better than "Help Wanted: Ask Inside" stickers superglued to the side of a brick structure.
You wouldn't believe how many computer jobs I've applied to in recent times. I know I'm more qualified than most people for them, but the economy is shit right now and companies know that they can hire some chump right out of college for peanuts instead of paying the regular amount to someone with real experience. I couldn't even find a data entry/word processing position and I type much faster than most people do. I constantly check the papers, job sites, etc... but there's just not much out there right now. And Richmond isn't exactly "Technology Central, USA" as it is. As for unemployment, I've been to the office and I don't qualify anyway. So this is the best thing I can do right now, just work a shit job until something else comes along.
