One more thought, something that too few people really understand. Your work attitude and your skills and abilities are what your employer is buying. It is all you have to sell.
If you have no skills and the boss can hire 10 people this morning and have them trained to do your job as well as you can by mid-afternoon...you don't have much to sell. That guy needs to be sure he is prompt, follows direction and shows up for work everyday which adds value to him as an unskilled employee.
The more skills and knowledge you bring to the job, especially skills and knowledge that can not be easily duplicated with a new or different employee, adds more value...and higher pay.
If for example you really know transmissions and can fix any condition, you have a leg up on getting a skilled job. Unfortuantely a lot of our unemployed workers really have no skills that are saleable right now.
