seamus · 08-01-2002 4:00pm

I'm 19, but in college. So I only read/reply/post here when I'm looking for a new p/time job

Blitzkrieger · 09-01-2002 12:50am

21

What would be more telling is how many people :

*look for work here
*post job offers here
*are bored at work here

Post a poll? *shrug*

phobos · 09-01-2002 11:37am

I'm 21,

But I always get paranoid and think someone is profiling my character, saving this sacred information until some day. A day where they will pop out of the bushes with a big red book, and drag me on to a TV set, where I shall meet all those people that I was told were dead, and such

RIGHT!, there ya go.

;-phobos-)

thats because its a work discussion forum, not an agency recruitment site.
and actually as it happens, we have had a few jobs advertised here. in fact vagga used to advertise here and then when hed sacked them, he hire here again

i just wanted to get a rough idea of the people who look at this forum. is it students, or people in full time employment etc.
i guess its just a whole range of people with nothing better to do

WhiteWashMan · 09-01-2002 1:12pm
