Now for some good news: More than two-thirds of Fortune 100 best places to work are hiring

My buddy Joe the Grocer in Cool Springs hired someone today.

And that's in keeping with findings in the Fortune 100 Best Places to Work, in which 73 of those companies actually are hiring now. Joe works for one of those companies, Publix.

Locally headquartered, Vanderbilt University ranked 98th on the list.

To see the full list, go to: http://money.cnn.com/magazines/fortune/bestcompanies/2009/full_list/

What is the moral of this tale?

Don''t give up hope. These companies represent the foundation upon America will come back economically and those who have been laid-off will return to the ranks of the employed.

I do not believe America will return to its economic greatness once enjoyed. It is like Britain after WWI. It no longer then was the great empire and had to find a new place in the world hierarchy.

That doesn't mean that England still is not respected and remains one of the two financial centers of the world. The same will be for America.

Use the Fortune 100 list to find employment and resurrection.
