I guess I'm not welcome here simply because I can't find a job...

1382474 2014-08-26 07:22:00 There are lots of jobs out there in Auckland. More jobs than there are suitable people for. Hireplace near here interviewed 21 people for service technician (check the stuff in and out). Only 3 passed interview made it to medical and drug test and all three failed. Thats a lot worse than washing out from flying training in the RNZAF which never had a 100% chop rate!

.

Some people do not have the above endorsements.
There are a lot of firms who will hire those that do over those that don't, they go with the experienced instead of bothering with training.

If they think you are overqualified, then they won't bother either.
And age, well, a relative used to drive all the roadworks machinery, she hit 50 and when she lost her last job, goodbye, she ended up having to work as a aged care worker, minimum wage. No one was interested in hiring and "old women" when there were tons of young males applying.

1382476 2014-08-26 20:42:00 Anyway, seems the topic has been hijacked.

It was over the pictures dispute with the "repairer".

Yes, she was dumb. So was he.

I had a couple of incidences when I was given PCs to fix with pictures on them In fact screensaver was set to slideshow them.

One was pretty off........pics of the barn that had been converted for certain purposes, not just with the wife but the livestock too paarently.

He seemed to think it was quite amusing and made a comment about me viewing them, when he came to collect it.
I did not return it, I made him come fetch it, and I never fixed their PCs again, sure didn't copy the pics or any such thing.

Ah yes but it was just a pose next to it, a dodgy pose admittedly but not provable as an actual act.
