Layoffs, furloughs, and companies going out of business. In this recession, many are now suddenly without a job. That's why
Goodwill Industries held a career fair Monday.
Gracie Eason is looking for a job. She used to own a trucking company, until the economy bottomed out. She then got a job with another company. All was well for almost a year and then the down economy struck again.
"I worked for that company for eight months then they decided to lay the whole sales team off, " said Eason.
Without a job, Gracie says she's definitely ready to work again. "It's really hard," she said. "I'm used to a set income."
As soon as Gracie heard about the Goodwill career fair, she decided she had nothing to lose.
