:mad:
yep, very poorly..
Sounds like they just needed a hand for a few days cheaply then....
chalk it up to experience....:(
yep looks that way, another job application to fill out.. if this fails i may try going solo, see how things pan out.Quote:

bit mean to do that right in the interview!
you did not want to work for them, anyway, with an attitude like theirs!
There's obviously something strange about that shop if they'd rather take their client's word over your own in this situation. :confused:
Hang in there bro - someting better will turn up.
im thinking of being a bouncer, probably the only other job i could do besides this, not many things i think i can turn my hand to very easily, still I'll have to think about it.

Hi Garak,
I know how you feel. Sorry to hear that not only are you not getting the work, it sounds like you are being messed around too. It never rains but it pours.
I have been trying to find something in Zurich, Switzerland for the last 6 months, my girlfriend lives there since April 2001, I still live in Paris. 650 kms distance and we see eachother about once a month for maybe 3 to 4 days.
There seem to be fewer and fewer jobs, the situation out there is not so good after Swiss Air going bust last year. It had a big knock on effect.
I just keep applying and one of these days something will come up that is for me, I'm sure the same will happen for you.
Courage my man,
emr
Thanks, gotta keep plodding i guess.
Garak,
Up until recently, I was in the same boat as you. I had been unemployed since January and from that time to now, interviews were few and far between. Some I didn't like, others seemed flaky and others didn't even give me the chance. That was until a job I had been hoping for since April got back to me in August and all things worked out fine and I started on the 26th.
So don't give up hope!!!
:D
Well, I have another interview on Wednesday afternoon, 1pm :) Not what i want to be doing, but it's "graphical design" but after ringing up, it sounds like alot more, but hey its a job, £4.10 an hour 30hours + a week, can't be all bad, hopefully I can make ends meet on that..
Anyhow, I think I'm going to update my webpage somewhat,
