“How is the job hunting going Alex?”
She shrugged her shoulders in a nonchalant manner and didn’t say anything in reply.
“You are so well educated, a graduate of a top ranked university. How come you cannot find a job which suits your qualifications?”
Alex stared at her father in a resentful manner. She was not a little girl anymore and didn’t like to be taken to task for the way she lived her life, even though she still lived at home with her parents.
” Dad you know I have emailed my CV to so many of my acquaintances and I am waiting to hear back from them”
” Well I think it’s an anomaly, you not getting a job. All your friends have managed to get good ones” Dad was in a jesting mood.
At that moment, her mom walked in and Alex turned to her for some support.
“Mom you know I am right in not accepting just any job. I was at the top of my class. I can only take a position that is in accordance with my qualifications”
Mom gave a cynical smile and said ” Well honey, you should wait till Bill Gates steps down and then you can take up his job”
Alex stomped her feet in frustration and walked out.

Good one. Take any job! A blank resume is not impressive.
