If it looks like a duck, and quacks like a duck, we have at least to consider the possibility that we have a small aquatic bird of the family anatidae on our hands

    Congrats! I've never struggled for jobs and actually been handed opportunities. However, my fiance has always worked in construction. He was made redundant in August 2008. He must have applied for 100s of jobs and after 10 months of trying and trying again he started a job last week :)

    Glad you have found a job, i have not given up yet, although i am close, the jobs are not there in the first place the only way forward i see is getting a clooege course and re-training, i am looking into this route.
    Owed out = lots. :cool:

    Just wanted to drop a note to all you out there looking for work and getting frustrated with the current lack of jobs...

    I was made redundant in Feb, but I've just accepted a job. I was at the point of giving up and throwing all my toys out of the pram, but it just goes to show, that if you keep trying, something will come along for you...

    well done, have a pint to celebrate:beer:
