    a few years ago i did get caught doing something bad to one of the female temps at work but the guy who caught us never said anything. in fact he used to hang around her quite a bit after that, i assume he thought she was easy. if he comes on my leaving do i will have to ask him. :p

    Ok, well, at least you're calling it by the right name instead of "widetubes," "interwebs" or something equally as silly.

    Seeing as you were able to post that message, I'm assuming you already know how to use a "web browser." So ... Here is what you do:

    1) I recommend using w3catalog, aliweb, JumpStation, Gopher or any similar, reliable and current web searching site.

    2) Type in your search term, something like "Don't wanna be a scrounger", "No dole for me" or even "Not wasting my time on the c-64 forum, better get a job instead" ... I am fairly certain that you will be successful, and might even eventually be able to find a job, some weeks (nay months!) after you have discovered "redtube" or some other similar search engine.

    Best wishes, and a hearty Welcome To The Internet!

    He might be able to get you work in the fruit/greensgrocers-selling biz (I hear the youth of today are calling "business" "biz" these days, and I like to be hip and wif it!(see what I did there, I spelled "with" wif an "f" ... I so hip and cool!)) as apparently he also sells apples from his van.

    any sales job is on commision .. so no.. + the fact you'll get 100's hanging up the phone on you..

    years ago when I was about 16 I guess.. I went to a job place.. they had a job for selling tropical fish tanks door to door ..


    you liked what you were currently doing? just the people.. perhaps get something along them lines..

    only thing is , agencies will annoy ya on websites.. promise the earth.. and in a lot of cases deliver sod all / send you for totally unsuitable jobs.

    No, but did you see the site's name? Just in case you missed it, it's called:

    BIG JOBS

    Obviously, slang varies a bit across the English-speaking world, but even so...
