Kids can't fix things.

common sense seems to be a gift nowadays!

 

There are always jobs going in any career, but a fresh student isnt going to have a chance, i myself do look around and see jobs going but they are always for tree officers and head climbers, i have enough sense to know that ill not be able to fulfill that job at my current stage, but it would be nice to be able to some day.

 

I seem to fall into a stereotype, a student with fresh qualifications and no skills, most ofmy other peers will likely have little work over the summer, whereas i am managing fairly regular work, im still training as i have a lot to learn, but doing that i am putting myself out of that sterortype, which can only be seen. I can phone companies up and ask for any basic work and they ask what i have but they never get back to me, it makes it a bit unfair.

 

People say if it aint broke dont fix it, but if you want to learn, break it!

 

Been there done that mate, I started out as a keeper, but coming straight out of college nobody would give you a job as you had no experience, but as you couldnt get a job to get experience I was stuck in a vicous circle, so thats how I ended up setting up on my own at 17, works changed direction a few times but if I didnt know how to do something I found out rather than turning work down :thumbup1:
