Bendihorse

Congrats, wel done you!

I moved home from Dubai at the end of September, applied for one okayish (Money wise) job and got it.
When I was in that job 2 weeks, I saw another job advertised that I thought I would really like, good career prospects and good pay. Applied for that thinking I might be pushing it a bit and I flippin got that one too! In second job now for past 6 weeks and its going great.

Congrats on getting the new job man.
Just a shame in a few weeks EVERYTHING you earn will be taken to pay off a really big loan.
Me on the otherhand am doing it the other way round. Have had a job up to now and being made redundant xmas eve. So I'll then be getting the state to provide for me till you pay off my part of the loan for me.
HA HA Sucker

(Thanks by the way)

I know he said he was going on a session with his credit card, but surely it's not going to be that big?

Oh yeah, congrats OP.

I quit mine last Thursday. It's probably mine that you got.

And no, it wasn't in the building sector.

When your unemployed threads about jobs are meaningless.

I don't understand how people cannot get a job to be honest. Do they simply have no skills at all?

Yes, everybody that is unemployed has no skills at all, in fact, the other day my shoelace was open and I had to ask an old man to bend down and tie it for me, then I dribbled instead of saying thanks.

It's really quite simple, the fact that you don't understand it says a lot tbh.

TBF it depends on what skills you have. I know somebody who studied for 7 years to be an architect and was gainfully employed for 4 years after graduating. Her firm folded Christmas 2008 and her job disappeared along with 70% of Irish architects.

There were and still are literally no architecture positions open in the country. People with 5 times her experience can't get a architecture job these days.

She was unemployed for 18 months and went back to education and did courses in business and project management. She recently started at an entry level temp position doing data entry for a large company on less than half the wage she was earning as an architect.

.

That's not strictly true. I'm taking on an architectural technician in the new year & a friend of mine has recently taken on a senior architect and an engineer.

Granted, there are a lot less jobs than there were, but it would be wrong to think that there aren't any jobs available. A lot of the larger companies folded because their main clients were large scale developers, but there are still lots of people building houses & there's plenty of work in the commercial & agricultural sectors.

I'm also looking for someone to do secretarial duties for a few mornings a week & can't find anyone suitable.

I got offered a position last week but didn't feel the need to inform a load of people I don't know who more than likely don't care.
