I'm seeking employment, anybody on kb have any positions going?

[skidMark]

Ive been unemployed for a while now...been offered some jobs but each time the pay was not enough....it's not so much the pay $13 an hour roughly would be fine to start off with....

but i need alot of hours ... this is because my parents want me out of home... and flatting is damn expensive...so i need to be doing approximately 50 hour working weeks, more if possible.

preferably after something in the motorbike industry.

but yeah whatever you guys have got i guess anybody able ot help me out...and i spose if need be i am willing to move away from auckland.

if anybody has anything that would be much appreciated.

Regards: Mark

Have you tried the personal approach Mark?.. buy that i mean, have you fronted up at any bike shops and asked the question?....Cycletreads perhaps? by doing it that way in my book, speaks volumes rather than waiting for a job to come to you...you go to the job!...you know what you want to do and thats a good start, seek and ye shall find....:yes:

[Steam]

oooh marky mark, you are opening yourself up to a world of mockery right there buddy! Be prepared for amusing cruelty.

Good luck in getting a job though eh! With unemployment at 3.6% it seems like it shouldn't be too hard, right?

[JimO]

i could suggest a few positions............have you tried hanging around the wharf when the russian trawlers are in

[Blondini]

nanny????:yes::shutup:

[scumdog]

Sounds like a modern yoof - want to be at the topof the ladder - but doesn't want to risk stubbing his toes on the rungs on the way up.

Good luck young SM - but in the real world just grab ANY job - you can climb up the ladder but at the moment you can't it.

<hints id="hah_hints"></hints>Isn't minimum wage $12 anyway? He doesn't sound like he's aiming that high, the main thing he wants is a lot of hours.

Congratulations skidmark, on winning your first competitive race! Yes, you were the fastest sperm!

The winners prize was the right to starve, die of thirst, freeze to death, die of the heat or get off your arse and find something to eat, drink and get protection from the elements!

No one said it would be easy!

Remember the other two million contestants that "lost" to you only lasted another hour or so before they were flushed into oblivion!

They would love to change places with you, I am sure!

You could have ended up a wank, a coitus interruptus, even as a fastest sperm who found there was no train at the station when you got there, if you get there!

You truly are one "lucky" son of a gun, you made it, despite the most outrageous odds, you arrived on your birthday a "human being"!

That's no mean feat, in fact it is a miracle!

Now you are looking for a "Job" and it sounds like you are asking for another miracle or a "handout" even!

You have to "earn" the right to daily sustenance and protection from the elements.

Other winner sperms will share theirs earnings through taxes donations "handouts" etc to get you started but the expectation is that you will develop skills and exchange work and effort in return for tokens that say you have added value to society and the tokens (money) represents your share and contribution.

So now that you have proved to be the "fastest sperm" in your heat, you now have the opportunity to prove that you are the "smartest sperm" as well.

You have been allocated approximately seventy years to accomplish it.

It's called a lifetime! (70 -75 years on average for males)

What you need now is not a "job" it's a set of "goals" a "plan" on how you are going to get there!

If you don't know where you are going, how will you know, when you get there!

Think about it, you have already used up twenty of your allocation of seventy years, what did you do with them?

How many have you wasted?

You have got fifty left, what are you going to do with them, get a "job" or get a ""plan" together!

Anything is possible and what you think about most "will" happen for you, if you make it happen!

Train your brain to work like a heat pump.

You owe it to yourself but nobody else owes you anything, least of all a "JOB"!

Good luck with the rest of your life. :yes: Cheers John.

[skidMark]

you quite alright there john :| where did that come from lol

[oldrider]

you quite alright there john :| where did that come from lol

Well, I am almost through my Quota, I hope I learned "something".

Just gotta share, I graduated from the "School of hard knocks" that doesn't mean we all have to do the same!

Make every one of those years count for something.

Time is like land, there's only so much, it gets more valuable every day! :yes: Cheers John.

.................do we have to do this all over again or have you got a damn job already?

[Nasty]

.................do we have to do this all over again or have you got a damn job already?

Was thinking the same thing .... *sigh*

[Colapop]

We can just cut to the end can't we? Here, I'll fill in the gaps...

Mark - I wanna job
Everyone - get off your arse and get one!
Mark - But I don't wanna work
Everyone - *sigh*

and so the show goes on....

[skidMark]

i never said i did not want to work i would not have asked if i wasnt willing to work

[madmal64]

I was really hoping this was lost. It was good for a laugh at the time but..... COl has said it all.
No more!:no:

Also from memory, but there seems to be quite a few posts missing from this thread.

[Pancakes]

and I'm missing a few green blings etc... ah well, we get a whole lot more than we pay for on here!

[1vanvan1]

Member me! i was the one who got the job from this thread. I'm missing all my bling I got from here! :( :doh:

[Sniper]

Move to CHCH, you can have my job

[Animal]

No! What are you thinking? He'll bring down the local property values! Our insurance rates will skyrocket! Aaaaargh!

[McJim]

One thing that is conspicuous by it's absence is your cv.

Details of previous jobs, achievements, references and qualifications.

This absence would lead us to believe that you are, in fact, looking for an unskilled position and since New Zealand is currently facing a skilled labour shortage and an unskilled labour surfeit you probably have a whelk's chance in a supernova of actually finding gainful employment.

What is different about you that would make a prospective employer consider you?

What value would you bring to a company?

How would you improve profitability?

My suggestion to you is to therefore acquire some skills. Or if you have some, tell us about them.

[LilSel]

acquire some skills. Or if you have some, tell us about them.

'I can do phat stoppies' :clap:

[Beemer]

Also from memory, but there seems to be quite a few posts missing from this thread.

Yes, in fact most of the posts that were critical of his approach. Is that why KB was down for so long, was it being politically correctisised?

[McJim]

'I can do phat stoppies' :clap:

(te he he...)

All joking aside - the boy doesn't seem to understand fear and can handle a bike better then I can so perhaps he should try to become a stuntman?

He'll have to kiss arse in the film industry and probably have to start off doing pro bono work but could be a good career choice for the future.

Unfortunately he seems to want instant gratification - i.e. a job for money instead of the will to improve a business.

[avgas]

holy crap minimum wage is $11.25
is it wrong that i remember working for $8/hr when i was 20
How can people off you less that $12/hr when the minimum wage is $11.25!!!!
Is it just me mark or do you suck at interviews?:drool:

[jafar]

Wonder where the critical postings went :confused:
Mabey spankme tossed them in the bin to stop the thread ending up in P.D.:whistle:

And stoppies aint going to help your money situtation when you fuck one up and flip the bike or what not.

If U have not produced one, then U are trying to race without petrol.

I am not gonna try to explain what U need to put in it here. Do some googling.

But I say this much: You MUST custom make it for each position you apply for! You are the sales man and you are selling the product: YOU! And the CV only gets you to the interview (thats what it's purpose is). Then your personality and all the other winning attributes will need to kick in.

The interviews you go to and you don't get the jobs serve a important purpose: They are the rehersals and you need to be critical about how you perfomed and learn what mistakes U did. Then when U have mastered the interviewing process you will hit the jackpot.

And if we assume that you will only get one job in ten of the ones you go to the interview to, then we know that you need to get a minimum of ten interviews before U have a job. How many have you had so far??

Good luck!

He's on the money there dude. Talk to someone to make the contact and soak them in, (their voice on the ph or whatever) then think about them while your writing your cv, you can choose how much you want to extrapolate each part of your CV then. Good luck dude. Just go 100% till you get something then keep applying!, the money will start and if it's not your dream job do it so well they love you and give you a glowing reference whan you get that interview for one that is.

It sounds like you want something in the industry (bikes)? Supply and demand dude. Not that many bike shops and lots of young guys (comparitivly) dreaming of working in them, you'll have to be ready to deal with that. You also have to realise the dangers of making your passion your job, can be draining to say the least. You should do something similar but not the same so you can use your skills for bikes but remember about the builders house, do you want a mechanics bike? Go hard out to get a CAD programmers cert or something.
