spent 4 hours in my local job centre today looking for a replacement job after the shitty one they gave me a month ago

i am a graduate with a bit of itelligence and straight away i seem to be too qualified and too specialised to do an office job which i have on and off 5 yrs experience in

you would have thought i'd have had a better response than that
 
In my experience i find that you cant get anything at a job agency that you cant get on the internet.
Sit at home on a computer or spend time and money running around going to job centres. Hmmmm i know which one i would choose.
 
it's raining here so i can't work this morning. does that qualify for a blow job?:p
 
It's not like the days of the Labour Exchange - the Broo, it was called in Glasgow.
Sounds dismal, Wiz.
Building's the thing. Loads and loads of money - just go to building sites and ask for work - move around if you have to - or put an add in the local freebie as an odd-job man. You'll be surprised at how many skills you have you didn't know about. Avoid electricity unless you know your wires, but the worst that can happen with a plumbing mistake is you get wet - unless it goes over your electricity.
Just remember:charge by the hour, not the job, since you've no idea how long anything will take if you've never tried it before.
And be ethical. In fact put that in your ad.
"Ethical odd-job man".

now that would get you all the jobs from the religious people in the city i bet.

and guareteed tea and biscuits and no problems with getting paid and probably a little bonus at the end of the job.
