Default Do you have a job?
Do you have a job or are you out of work at the minute?

If you're in school what do you want to do?

I don't get much sleep and take most of my classes on the two days (Mon& Tues) I have off from work.

I work 11pm to 7:30 am so I either come home and sleep to four in the afternoon and then wake up and do homework(or procrastinate by doing things like posting on here) and then go into work. Or I just stay up to 5 in the afternoon after work dong homework and then sleep.

I have almost no social life outside of the summer.

I'm guessing Roy doesn't want to leave uni with a shed load of debt, can't be easy but well done.

It's really rude to ask a question like this. Not all of us conform to the western capitalist societal norms of a "job". just so you know.

Some of us have rich parents.

don't say that Jords. That's just the label society places on you. It's not who you REALLY are.

No, I mean I've applied for so many jobs since last year but failed. I've got good qualifications for someone my age, did a bit of experience in the summer at my cousin's shop, have done loads of voluntary stuff with the council which I got involved in when I was in secondary school, but still, nothing.

My friend has a job at Waitrose and lied a lot in his application, rofl. Maybe that's what I'll do
