Good luck with your hunt, sounds liek something a bit more permanent than working 16hours a week in Halfords

But money is better than no money and i'll enjoy it if I get it, I love tinkering with mechanical things

Took me ages to find even a part time job, I went in every shop and rang up everywhere, noone was taking on.

It's soo hard for a 16year old to get a job

Thanks btw and good luck with your job hunt

Thanks. I've been looking for almost a year now. It sucks really bad that I havn't found anything. While looking for a job, I almost got scammed. I'm hoping I get a job around september for the "holiday season" but since people are broke, I don't know how shopping season will be this year and who will be hiring. Oh well, I'll take all the luck I can get.

Too bad you don't know anyone who owns a buisness

Yeah well, considering his business is quite far, I can't be going there and college at the same time. It's either one or the other.

Aced that interview, told them exactly what they wanted to hear and dressed like a million dollars

So now they have invited me to the second stage of the interview which is more hands on, I will be given a bike to fix in a certain time (easy)

Wanna fix mine? I decided I need to get on my bike again but the tyres were old and worn so I decided to replace both tyres/tubes/valves. When I went for a ride I realized that both leak air (slowly). Haven't been arsed to check where since I've had my hands full with other things.

good luck for the second part mr. V

wanted to build conveyor belts(or work at the electronic workshops of the same company) this summer, its good earned money - but due to the economic crisis they don't need additional workforce this summer.
so i thought about looking somewhere else, but i am sick of summer jobs where the only thing you do is typing excel sheets ...and the money you get for this hardly makes you smile at the end of the summer.
so i decided to spend less for holidays and other stuff, and simply enjoy the summer time(worked the last couple of summer holidays anyway)

The isn't brilliant!

But when your down to your last couple of quid, it's better than nothing!!

Talking of jobs...

Some of you may know that I'm a lawyer since January (in France)... International business law to be more specific.
Well I decided it is too much work,for not enough money.

So I found a job as a teacher in law, at the faculty of law of Bucarest (Romania)...

Of course, I don't speak romanian at all, it wouldn't be funny if I did! I'll teach in french and english. I'll stay there 1 or 2 years.

After that, the crisis will hopefully be over and I'll look at the possibilities.

I'm very happy about this new job, will be an awesome experience I think. Starting in September.
