Welcome to the NatCap Club!

This site is happily dedicated to great teachers like Sister Shaun Paul, Sister Virginia Mary, & Father Maher from Queen of Apostles grade school in Riverdale, Illinois. And Mrs. Fagarason and other teachers at Thornton Township High School in Harvey, Illinois.

Here it is – my first book: PackerBackerBob!’s Guide to Global Prosperity

2) Here are Stories from My high school’s Race Riot torn decade – 1968 to ’78

Read stories from us teenagers who lived it. Learn from us.

Be you Black, White (or any other ‘color’), if you lived Racial conflict growing up, Share your stories. Maybe this will help others.

Together we can Bend the Arc of Justice a bit <

3) MeetUP and Mingle Around with fun people around Chicago.

It’s free to join, and Jill ( she runs it) has GREAT EVENTS. (She’s well organized. Nice people attend. Single, or not. Some events do cost, but very reasonable)

I’m a co-organizer. Which means I initiate events too. Suggest stuff to her or me. Mingle Around

=++= Other Good Stuff =++=

a) Don’t let yourself get screwed just because you’re out of a Job! Say you work for Sunrise Spirits, Inc

b) MeetUp with others, here’s THE best way to get Badly behaving businesses to change.

Protest & Wack them at the store level. You can participate from anywhere in the world.

Job searching tips from you all

As I go to unemployed network meetings, people give others helpful ideas. For example, someone mentions they are Technical Writers. Somebody else sez ‘Oh, are you dialed into the Tech Writer association?” Or it’s fairly complex, and you want to tell them about it later. Whatever. Feel free to add it as a comment here. President Obama is doing what he can. I wish he could do more.

As (my recently unemployed) HR recruiter friend told me the other day “Getting thru HR to an interview is a game…ya gotta learn to game the system….Extraordinary times call for Extraordinary measures….” This is a good place to yell the Union slogan – “Workers Unite!” Somehow, we gotta find ways to help each other.
