I specially like this part..."Even though things are getting better, companies are still cautious about hiring full-time workers"............to me this like the daughter telling her dad "Dad? I only half pregnant"

TAUNTON -- A Massachusetts employment organization has canceled its annual job fair because not enough companies have come forward to offer jobs.
Richard Shafer, chairman of the Taunton Employment Task Force, says 20 to 25 employers are needed for the fair scheduled for April 6, but just 10 tables had been reserved. One table was reserved by a nonprofit that offers human services to job seekers, and three by temporary employment agencies.
Shafer tells the Taunton Daily Gazette the lack of employers means the task force won't have enough money to properly advertise the fair.
The task force has been organizing the job fair nearly every year since 1984.
Shafer says the cancellation reflects the current economy -- even though things are getting better, companies are still cautious about hiring full-time workers.
