ANDY SERWER, "FORTUNE" MAGAZINE: One stock that's on the move this morning is Krispy Kreme. People are eating those doughnuts. The stock is up about $1.30 in early trading, to $38. Profits are soaring. And, you know, this has been one of the great success stocks over the past two years. While the market has tanked, Krispy Kreme has gone up.
And we also want to talk about job searches this morning. A lot of people out of work. It's tough looking for a job, but EDS, Ross Perot's old company down in Texas, is making the job search process a little bit easier. They are putting automated job listing kiosks in pubs in England. They are doing it in England for some reason. I don't know.
So any way, so get this. You're sitting there drinking a beer in a pub and you're looking for a job.
PAULA ZAHN, CNN ANCHOR: Oh, that looks like a good one.
SERWER: I like it -- I like that -- they are like ATMs. And they say they already have these things in supermarkets and prisons.
ZAHN: Really?
SERWER: I didn't know they had job listing kiosks in prisons. Anyway, I guess those people need a job when they get out on the other side, right.
ZAHN: Yes, I guess. Well, they'll have a very long wait.
But going back to London, I think that's actually a pretty civil way to look at a job, if you can control your drinking, you're doing it in a relaxed environment and maybe that's less intimidating.
SERWER: We should send Richard Quest (ph) to the George pub in Wedmore, Somerset, that's the first one. Not that he should look for a job. No, he's got a good job now. But, you know, just to go out there and check it out, right.
ZAHN: OK, you have a good weekend.
SERWER: You, too.
