Well, I kinda been working as a builder for him since well, when I was in school.... well, on and off anyway, so this is kind a kick in the teeth, though in some ways also a blessing....

how many electrical and electronic engineers you know working as general builders ? tim eto find a job to use me qualifications in I suppose..... though I would have rather have gone from one job to another rather than run around in between....

Just not very happy at his whole 'ohh the comapny isnt doing so good thing' hes been spouting out at the rest of us.... as those of us with half a brain know its all balls.... annoying more like.

Bad news dude.

But see it as an opportunity to do something different. Hows that other application going?

even if I finished off that application now.. it wont get processed quick enough to help me right now..... its like writing a god damned book! why do they want to know my great grandfathers best friend while he was at school!?!
So I need a job asap.. not in McDonalds though... I'll get sacked for either eating the stock.... or putting a sledge hammer through whatever keeps on beeping back there while Im waiting in the queue!

putting an application in now for a job on monster.co.uk... which Im qualified to do... heck, soldering and reading a multimeter.... I do that on my bike ona daily basis! and it pays more than the PCSO job as well....

Sorry to hear this VB. Might be time to get 'just any job' in the short term to get some cash and then to consider retraining part time to get another better job. Good luck!
