the stimulus isn't stimulating....

Even though I'm in school, I still watch for engineering opportunities.  There was a job fair today for the Texas version of the EPA.  There were 24 positions advertised and it started at 9:00.  I got there right at 9:00am and the line was 200 yards long.  I got in the door by 10:15 but I never made it to the interview portion of the festivities.  When I left at 11:00 for school, there was still a substantial line outside.  They were being told that they wouldn't be able to do all those interviews by quitting time (3:00pm) so they should go home.
