Job hunting in a recession

A few months ago at an all-staff meeting, someone lamented, "I wish there was a newspaper that just published good news. I'm getting depressed!"

It's not a newspaper, but I've found a new blog that publishes a daily dose of inspiration. Today's posting has had me smiling since I found it. Here's the story:

Ben Gullet, who lives in Tampa, learned his dad Mark was losing his job after 9 years as vice president of marketing for the Tampa Bay Lightning hockey team. Ben found a way to help.

Watch this video he made and posted on YouTube, which has led to eight job offers for his dad. True story.
