Myhusbandneedsajob.com is a new site that helps wives help their husbands find a job. The site was created by a woman in California after watching her husband desperately try to find a job.

"I grew frustrated. He has been sending out resumes since he graduated but nothing has happened," the San Francisco, California, resident said. "He's such a great candidate, he would be an asset to any company."

Michael Stearns, 30, earned his master's in business administration from Georgetown University in Washington in May 2008. He says he is "basically looking to get into a corporate marketing environment" but is willing to try anything reasonable.


As the economy continues to suffer though, more and more people are turning to creative ways to find jobs. Employers are looking for people that are creative in ways that make them stand out from others.
So far, the husband has got a few job offers and he plans to follow them up.

Not to sound sexist, but men derive a higher percentage of the meaning of their life from work, and less from home.

Beyond that, we see our role as providing support for that home from our work, so that not having work, we are devastated in both areas of life.

This lack of work is due to our trade policies, the off-shoring of work which is supposed to be a net advantage when the product comes back cheaper.

Those new jobs don't exist.

I can relate to the frustration of a jobless husband. My husband has worked construction most of his life and that area is severely suffering from the economy. I don't know what to do other than work as much as I can and hopefully we will get through this with our lives somewhat intact.
