    You're wrong that your current perspective is the only valid one. Many eyes, many viewpoints, many being valid.

    You're in for a very arguementative life. However, it sounds like you enjoy that, so.. enjoy!

    So at 23 "21 years my senior" where do you see the future.


    Depends. possibly the JET scheme. I'm 23 so would be naive to say what I want because I really dont know.

    Jet scheme is this:

    http://www.jet-uk.org/

    If that fails, which it may, because it is so competitve, then maybe INTERAC JAPAN.

    However I will need set-up costs.

    M: Ah. I'd like to have an argument, please.
    R: Certainly sir. Have you been here before?
    M: No, I haven't, this is my first time.
    R: I see. Well, do you want to have just one argument, or were you thinking of taking a course?
    M: Well, what is the cost?
    R: Well, It's one pound for a five minute argument, but only eight pounds for a course of ten.
    M: Well, I think it would be best if I perhaps started off with just the one and then see how it goes.
    R: Fine. Well, I'll see who's free at the moment.
    Pause
    R: Mr. DeBakey's free, but he's a little bit conciliatory.
    Ahh yes, Try Mr. Barnard; room 12.
    M: Thank you.

    Thanks for posting your conversation with your therapeutic counsellor, but there wasnt a need.

    I do know the difference. just cant be arsed to put the little blip between u and r.

    :)

    I would post my CV here but contains too much personal info.

    The 'little blip' between the u and the r is called an apostrophe. Also, it needs to go between the u and the re for you to be correct.....

    HaHa,

    Took someone long enough to quote that.

    The fact you quoted it just baited it lol.

    :rotfl:I hope you think I wasn't being serious.

    There are certain jobs i definitely wouldn't do, more so for the affect they'd have on my health though. Anything that is high pressure/very strtessful etc is out of the question

    There is a difference between disgarding certain jobs to maintain your health than to disregard jobs because you think you are too good for them.

    If I was an employer looking at your CV I would rather take on somebody without any gaps...working at somewhere like Tesco is better than doing nothing.

    I have a "crap" job, it is BECAUSE I have pride and self esteem that I do my job actually.

    Good luck with your sales jobs.
    Sadly, you don't have any badges yet but keep trying! See what you could get........... oh boo hoo I am crying into my wine. :D
