s _ C4 - Wednesday, February 15, 1984 - North Shore News SEMINAR AT WV HIGH Tough time to THE JOB market is getting tougher and the hardest hit are the young and the old; those at the beginning or the end of their working years. For the young inexper- ienced would-be workers the discouraging experience of repeated rejections comes at a time when they should be building up their confidence, Sing-a-long at OLD TIME Sing-A-Long songs will be featured at the Coconut Grove Piano Bar during the ‘‘Swingtime’’ big band dance at the West Van- couver Senior Activity Centre testing their wings. Not being able to get a job often means staying at home instead of moving out, which can be frustrating for both young adults and parents. It’s not as easy as it used to be to grow up and become independent. It takes more skill to manage on a limited budget, and more persistence on Saturday, February 18. Patrons who shun the louder music of the Elling- ton-Dorsey-Miller era, or do not wish to dance, can find **quiet type’’ music that recalls beach party sing- to keep on hunting for a job. If you need a boost in Job Search Skills or Money Management, consider Satur- day February 18’s seminar at West Vancouver Secondary. Sponsored by North Shore Family Services and Con- tinuing Education, the day will be spent learning how to present a positive self-image, how to plan an effective job search and in examining liv- ing options in relation to financial management. The $15 fee includes lunch. Registrations are being taken at North Shore Continuing Education, 721 Chesterfield Ave., North Vancouver, 985-8741. For more informa- tion call 988-5281. Swingtime songs.
