I've always managed to get a job when needed Pyramid.. I think a lot of people are either too lazy or look at some jobs as beneath them.
U do believe I'd you keep an open mind and are willing to try new things, most people could get a job. The first time I was made redundant, the job centre offered me an opportunity with the local council...as a grasscutter, and I was happy enough to give it a try. Thankfully something else came up but tbh, it was a job and I would have been quite happy donning a nice pair of dungarees and giving it a shot!
