    Got a job!!!

    Hiya all,

    Several people on KB have helped me admirably over the last few weeks and I want to say a big THANK YOU!!!!

    From the 11th June I will be once again gainfully employed

    I appreciate all the helpful comments and those who supplied positive leads,
    I placed 69 applications through all the normal channels and end up with zilch.

    I place a plea in KB and within two weeks I have a job!! Way to go.

    You guys and gals are just awesome.
    If the destination is more important than the journey you aint a biker.

    LOL

    Pretty expensive things those aren't they? What do they give you for redundancy?

    I've got life insurance to cover the mortgage and give the missus a few hot meals if somone decides to take me out but this MPI stuff can cost a fortune for redundancy cover.

    Always happens. I've never found a single job through conventional channels, and I've never been in any job for more than 2 years
    Zen wisdom: No matter what happens, somebody will find a way to take it too seriously. - obviously had KB in mind when he came up with that gem

    Artificial intelligence is no match for natural stupidity
