Ben, how do you always automatically get a job in every country you go to? :bawling: I have been looking for a job for over a year and did some courses and all to try improve my chances but I can't get anything..

I actually don't know. I just head out with my CV and ask to speak directly to the managers. One thing I'm good at is talking to people and selling myself. I come across pretty headstrong, sensible and confident so that also helps.

Its easier to get jobs abroad from my experience. When I worked in greece (was offered that job while on a week holiday there) I had 4 job offers in the space of a few months, and I wasnt even looking.

Been offered jobs while on other holidays too (namely in turkey, majorca and lanzarote)

Finished uni and currently unemployed. :(

Applied for a job on Friday so hopefully will hear back in the next couple of weeks.

When I was working full time a couple of years ago I was sick of the tedium, but now I'd give anything to be in work. :laugh:

Really depends. I worked 72 hours one week, 44 the next and like 30 the next so it's hard to put a number on it

Nothing fixed. I take over from my Dad and look after the Business when he needs me to.

Marsh.

Thank you. :hugesmile:
It's only minimum wage, but a start. Anything's better than daytime television. :laugh:

I'd love two days off a week

Vanessa

Currently on an 11 hour part-time contract but sometimes they'll ask us to work open-close shifts if the managers (who work from home) are away so I'd end up working well over 30 hours instead, which is fine by me, every little helps...

Marc
21-05-2013, 07:22 PM

Well, I don't plan on staying in Ireland anyway, maybe they'll like Irish people where I go. :joker:

I'd say 6-10. I like to wake up early and get all my work done as soon as possible so I have the rest of the day to do with as I please.
