But you say yourself your typing speed is slow and you have no particular specialism to offer and you swear at people.

That's all part of the charm
In all seriousness though. My typing speed is not slow. My typing speed is probably 90th percentile and although I'm a bit of a pain in the !!!, I can write better than 95% of the population and I can apply intelligence a vast amount of people don't have. I have a lot to offer, and I don't care if my experience is limited. Considering I handled my last appointment better than the lady who did it in the morning and she's been there 6 years-- I'm gonna say I'd be worth a punt.

Where do you live? I live in London and there are loads of temping PA type jobs around. Very often we don't get candidates with the right skills applying. NHS bank work is a good bet - can you audio type? In London, 8 Trusts have just recruited for bank admin/secretarial staff!

Unfortunately, I don't live in London. I'm midlands based

BTW, there is such a thing as number recognition - you may not give your name when you are offensive to people, but that does not mean that they don't know who you are, or that there isn't a record of your interactions with them.
