The beauty is that there's no accountability whatsoever. An employer
doesn't have to tell me why they don't hire me; and in Tennessee (and
many/most other states that have 'at will employment) they don't even
have to say why they fire someone.

The biggest obstacle I face is being overqualified. Twice in the past
week or so I've been told that I'm way overqualified for the position,
thanks for applying anyway, we'll keep your resume on file when a
management position opens up (though they probably promote from
within). Sheesh, inherent in being overqualified is being qualified,
and daddy needs to pay the bills.
