tec Posted July 29, 2009 Share Posted July 29, 2009 Yup, finished university, can't find a job, going on the dole. Bollocks. Does anyone know of any jobs going in the London area? I will accept cocaine as payment and blowjobs are not out of the question. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest boo Posted July 29, 2009 Share Posted July 29, 2009 surprisingly today was the first time it was suggested i cut my hair. by an asian woman. i was asking her about a dish washing job, she said it requires dish washing experience, i asked how i can get dish washing experience, she said "cut your hair". i left saying i'm going to get my hair cut, so i'm going to tomorrow and then go back there, maybe, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

essines Posted July 29, 2009 Share Posted July 29, 2009 i rock at getting jobs. but that's probably cause i do the jobs that no one else wants to do or will stick around at. i also have wicked references cause i'm an a+++ employee. taubs if you came to canada you could come make tofu cause we're looking for another worker.

Braintree Posted July 29, 2009 Share Posted July 29, 2009 I've always been shit at getting a job. I've only had one job where I didn't get in through a friend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest joshier Posted July 29, 2009 Share Posted July 29, 2009 locally, there were 90 people at one point applying for the same job and we aren't talking a luxury high paying one either. I've always been shit at getting a job. I've only had one job where I didn't get in through a friend. you need to be a good liar....thats what i've figured Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest idrn Posted July 30, 2009 Share Posted July 30, 2009 you could be a good liar OR you could try and become the person you lie you are. then again, it is very tempting to sit in a basement wanking whilst eschewing social etiquette, tact, interpersonal skills, experience and education, only to try and blag it on the day of an interview.

Guest joshier Posted July 30, 2009 Share Posted July 30, 2009 just say something like 'i've got cancer, will you please give me this job, i've always wanted to be in this position'.. hopefully they'll be so shocked at said statement, they will hesitate to question you on your authenticity and give you it.

Guest my usernames always really suck Posted July 30, 2009 Share Posted July 30, 2009 Been applying left and right to jobs I'm perfectly qualified for and which my resume matches with perfectly. Rejection after rejection after rejection. What is fucking stupid is when you read personal ads and these gold-digging bitches say "I DON'T WANNA DATE NO UNEMPLOYED MAN, DEADBEATS NEED NOT REPLY". So... unemployed = deadbeat? Really, you airheaded walking cum receptacles? And you know these women just want to marry a rich guy so THEY won't have to work.

Guest joshier Posted July 30, 2009 Share Posted July 30, 2009 Right, bit of genuine advice here... Shitty jobs (the ones where it's steady money but you don't really like the job) want shit people with no aspirations so they don't have to again employ more people as it is expensive to train new employees. This is sometimes the case, so just remember to tailor your C.V. to this if they catch on you're actually intelligent.. dumb it down.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
