    Curious as to whether anyone heard from HMV since they said they'd be in contact within two weeks?

    Wanna know whether to stop checking the e-mail.

    Anyone know of any jobs round limerick. Preferably in town or in the crescent. Can't drive so I'm limited by where the bus can take me :D every thing I've seen seems to require some form of expereince. In 2nd year in UL but honestly having thoughts of leaving it because its just not working out. Ideally I'd like to know I might have a job before I make that decision final. At the moment the only time I am available for work is weekends because of the way my schedule is layed out.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,001 ✭✭✭fl4pj4ck


    Don't want to be a smart arse, but are you sure you're not living in 2008?

    @coolguyrko, If you leave University you will look back and regret it. If you don't like your course, change modules, course or faculty. You can see how hard it is to get work, what will it be like without a qualification? You have this great opportunity, use it. Hang on in there if you can afford to, you will be working long enough.

    It may have been a crap hole but it was our crap hole Cillian. I should probably change that. Mood changes by the day tbh. Depends on how the riding goes(don't have a dirty mind for once) you not doing yours anymore?

    Nope I left in January, wasn't my thing. But the year is early still so you'd be surprised where it takes you. So its definitely worth sticking through for another while at least. I'm the last person you'd expect to hear it from but college is the place to be if you can, as I'm sure a lot of people in the jobs threads will tell you
    Because I've been looking myself, and although I'm lucky enough to be in a job (although with bar hours sometimes it might not even be worth it) all the jobs out there are either minimum wage in the likes of the Icon or jobs that require a level 7/8 degree.

    Apart from that, your only real choice in the matter unfortunately in this city is door to door sales.

    And Hey Phog nice to see you :) how're you getting on?

    A graduate in what? If thats how vague your cover letters are then that could be your issue :)
