In the old days, especially on tv game shows when the presenter asked the contendant what they did for a living, the woman (rarely a man) answered "full time mum" and received a round of applause. Now they're deemed as lazy feckers on benefits?
 P.S. My iron broke. Might ask the dole for an emergency loan |

Im looking for full time work after graduating (I'm 34 15 years work experience) still can't find anything. Its all £6.50 ah hour job or specialist jobs with this and that qualification or managers roles wanting experience.
For example my degree was geog and environmental management so looked into united utilities and virtually all their jobs require a specific qualification or experience working on a waste water facility. Why would you have either? Why can't they just take people willing to to gain these qualifications in the role??? |

pug its manageable if u dont go bloody out, i havnt had a drink in near 4 weeks and im still skint lol, altho i feel a hell of a lot better

Or thinking about it why don't employers work better with universities.
Again for example offer students the chance to gain these sorts of qualifications. They could choose an industry they most favour and do all or at least some of the required qualifications as part of the course and included in the price!! Whether it be in recycling, waste water or testing soil samples. |

Have you thought about applying to volunteer to gain that experience, I'm sure they'd be willing to take on someone for free for a while, and if they don't employ you, you still get a reference from them |

Hi Scandanavian. I have, the jobs I ve been looking at want experience of working with land managers for example.
You can get experience as there are events at weekends where you can get experience working with the environment sadly I work weekends. One job working for the local council promoting the area and its wildlife. Would have been perfect although not great pay. I did nt have the necessary footpath building experience  |

defo bhoys but as i say if one of your electrical items is bust then you are totally screwed unless you can get a replacement on credit and just pay it up
all my experience is office based work but i want a change and do something different but its hard without any experience just want a decent easy job for some regular coin apart from the lack of money the dole isnt so bad as you have a lot of free time trouble is no money to do anything unless your having good weeks on betfair |
|
By:
yea ur right there pug, even if you have a decent amount in betfair pug and ur not relly winning or losing u can dip into ur account now and again, but a big hit leaves u fooked, what would ur normal day of eating involve pug? I havent been drinking so ive had a few quid to buy bits and bobs for my flat, nothing much like just cuttlery and stuff

In answer to the OP's original question:
I rise at noon and then spend most of the day playing games: pool, poker, quizzes etc. I also walk and read quite a bit. |
