Be A Postal Carrier in SoCal

Posted by on in Jobs For Veterans
Here is a continuous announcement for postal carriers in Southern California. I was a mailman for awhile in my youth. It is a casual job that you do primarily alone. You go in and sort and organize the mail for your route(s). Put it into your bag, or tray if driving a jeep. And then deliver the mail. At the end of the day, you come back into the PO office and check out for the day. Great salary. Great benefits. Outside all day. No one looking over your shoulder.

Craigslist vs. HirePatriots

Posted by on in News
I like Craigslist. It is a great site that serves an important utilitarian purpose. And they also support local charities. The purpose of this comparison is not to denigrate Craigslist in any way. But too often I hear business owners and hiring managers tell me, “I post on Craigslist for the same price.” So I have written this post to highlight the numerous advantages to posting your jobs on HirePatriots.com that Craigslist does not offer, and to encourage you to post on HirePatriots.com too.  The similarity that we share is that HirePatriots.com and Craigslist have inexpensive and free job postings.  The...

Free Parking for US Veterans

Posted by on in News
One of the writers in my upcoming book: An American Crisis: Veterans' Unemployment is Seldom Graham, a WW II veteran. Yes, he is getting up there in years. But he is a veteran activist and his mind is still as sharp as a tack. He has been pushing for legislation in Texas for free public parking for cars with military and veteran licence plates.  Texas House Bill No. 1514 is to add World War II military license plates (Government Code Section 504.310 license plates) to the list of military license plates "exempt from the payment of a parking fee collected through a parking...
