I've had some really easy jobs, with grand titles that paid carp money. I did loads for a company, and looked good on my CV, but they took me for a ride.0

Male Prostitute in a niche market?
Caveman type especially if you like cracking rocks........ ;o))))I've had some really easy jobs, with grand titles that paid carp money. I did loads for a company, and looked good on my CV, but they took me for a ride.Easiest job I ever had was putting tickets in envelopes for a company that sold concert tickets. You could safely turn your brain off for the day and chill out. I'd go back to it in a second if I could live off £6/hr
that's the sort of thing, maybe.
How would one find such a job? Agency? Just ask for a mundane job??

Funnily enough if you can find an affluent area then you will make some money as I haven't seen one around my area for ages. £10 to £20 for a small house (3/4 bed not detached) won't take you more then 30 minutes to clean.Loanranger wrote: »Window cleaner?0 -
I am thinking small manufacturing company with less than ten employees, on an industrial estate near you. Walk or bike to work, a boss who will take time to train you on an assembly line, and a few people to pass the time of day with.
IlonaI love skip diving.

I say try landscaping. Get your hands dirty, it's a real workout and you usually don't have to work if the weather's bad.0

O.P. - you've had some good suggestions so far - so hope you find something suitable.
By the way - you don't actually come over as "thick" to me. I HAVE seen a lot of posts on MSE where I have thought that - and, believe me, some of the posts on here are ones I really "struggle" with interpreting. It's surprising/shocking just how many people seem to not be able to convey quite basic ideas clearly in their posts. When I see a thread started by someone like that - then I tend to give up reading at the outset, rather than trying to work out what they are trying to say for them.
Your post comes over quite clearly - so I wouldn't think you are "thick" as you put it. There may be some difference in "brain wiring" as you put it - but there ARE other differences in "brain wiring" besides being "thick". So - don't put yourself down - as I would say that self-assessment is not an accurate one. To me - it smacks more of average level intelligence - but not that good at relating face-to-face with people for whatever reason is causing that.0 -
what sort of speech problem is it?
and anxiety? Maybe you could take some sort of drug to relax you before interviews or something?
I had an easy/brain-dead job basically stapling cheques and cash to letters once, working at a marketing place who were dealing with the paperwork etc of a charity. loved it.0
