March Rant Page

Anyone interested in ranting? My only rant ATM is I am sick of not having a job. I have applied for at least 200 jobs and only had one proper interview. I am over being on Centrelink it's BS. I have to wait 12 months once I get a casual job so I can get a loan to try and get a tiny house built on my new block. I have now resorted to volunteering once a week so I am at least doing some sort of work.

Rant over.

Regards A

^ - that move where theres work

my issue atm is that my whole organizational line is underthreat stupid damn big power companies. *sigh*
industry reform happens october 4'th buuuut we can loose our jobs annnny time between now and then.
*yieks* how do you move a family of 3+cat somwehre sell the house your paying off with a new 10 month old.. not ideal in my opinion. but that's a rant done.

ohhhhhh another rant it's flodding in my town / city and stuff, and next to that flipping heck the jeep drivers window descided to snap it's cable. sooooo now that's been jammed up with an axe handle hahaha! - waaaa sooo daft.. oh well!

Well Ab that make my predicament look minor. I just have to suck it up and deal with living on Centrelink, as shit as it is.

Could do but I will be breached soon enough anyway for not doing their online activity that is meant to help you get a job. Still not having the dole won't mean I will get a job. Just means I won't get any money from Centrelink. I think there might just be no work in Tassie full stop for my qualifications and experience. FIIK. It as the same in SA where I was living, unless you have a building types trade, eg builder, plumber etc forget it because there are 100s of people going for the jobs that require little or no skill.
Nah with the current govt funding cuts my qualies are going to be all but useless. I just have to keep going to places and keep hounding them until they cave in and get sick of me asking and give me a job just to shut me up.

Edit: What I love is the local job network provider who I went on saw the day I arrived said with my qualies I have no trouble getting a job locally. WTF I think they tell you what you want to hear, because it is clearly BS. They said the bakeries are always looking for bakers; well that's news to the bakery owners LOL so I found out. No I am going to have to move even if it means I can't see my daughter; far out a man's gotta have work.
