    Well, if you don't "bother to go for jobs" you are unlikely to get one.

    What do you intend to do? Bludge off your parents until they die? Then what? Bludge off the welfare system for the rest of y' life?

    Most jobs most people apply for they get turned down. so , just apply for more. How many have YOU applied for this month?

    And in this case you have the inside running, an inside contact. Those are always the easiest to land. And from the sound of it they have several places going. Shit if I were out of work I'd be on their doorstep at 6:30 am on Monday.

    And when you do go for an interview , don't rant on about being unfairly dismissed (though I'm inclined to agree you were). Just tell them that the previous incumbant who had been ill, recivered and wanted his old job back. Nothing puts a prospective employer off faster than whinging.

    Stop f'ing around and PM Mr Donor, NOW. Shit , y're making me want to bring back CMT.

    With all due respect... bollocks.

    You have no idea how easily you would probably fall into a job there.

    If you're going to make excuses don't make them such pitiful ones. What happened to that push bike you had ?

    If you've made up y' mind to grow up a worthless bludger then just come out and say so.

    Have you told your parents about this opportunity? And you turning it down and preferring to go on cadging off them ? I bet you haven't. If that CVs not in Jayson's inbox I'm going round to see them, to have a wee talk about you.

    Read this thread with interest.

    Sweet Jesus Mark!! Don't you get it or are you deliberatly being obtuse? This is a perfect oppertunity for you. Its money in the back pocket dude. I know I really get fucked off with you, but Im sure you have enough brains to try sort your life out.

    You mentioned you have a VFR you are going to do up. Whos going to pay for that? Your parents? You know what, it won't be your bike then, its theirs!.

    What drives you to be so unmotivated? Make life your own, don't wake up one day at 65 and suddenly realise you have let life pass you buy.

    Go for the job, honestly, what do you have to lose?

    Mark you do have your own transport...

    Look down....... yes they are called feet.

    Walk there and back.

    You are young, this is a good way to get fitter.... for bike bucket racing that you want to get into.

    At least give it a go..... the boss is waiting to hear from you......

    Skid Mark,

    I've been watching this thread with real interest.

    Take the job. Get some cash into your bank account.

    I came back to NZ after 25 years away and needed to build a job history. I took the first job that I could get. Stayed there 3 years and have since moved on to a higher paid job in the field I enjoy.

    I've been working since I was 18. I am now 50. Never been unemployed. I've always gone out and found some sort of work. It may have been shit work but it paid the bills.

    The reason I am following this thread is that I have a 23 year old son in the UK who would love to be offered this opportunity. He has been going to interviews for 3 years now and cant get a job anywhere. He is now being treated fopr depression, brought on by a low feeling of self worth.

    Dont let this happen to you. It breaks my heart with my son and would also do the same to your parents.

    So the point of this.

    GET OFF YOUR FUCKING ARSE. GET TO THE JOB AND GIVE IT YOUR BEST.

    Mr
    "When you think of it,

    Lifes a bowl of ....MERDE"

    Oh ok....... my apologies for suggesting to walk there.

    I thought going by previous posts that it was only a short distance from his home to the factory.

    If he needs a pushbike, I have one hanging up in my garage.
    Hardly used and has lots of speed gears on it.
    I am happy to lend it to him until he gets his license back.

    The position has been filled.

    Literally, someone walked in off the street and got the job this arvo.

    I had talked Mark up to my boss, assured him a CV was on its way. I look a right cock now, especially after telling him about the reliability, punctuality etc etc...

    Ah well, say lar vee and all that, good luck Mark.
