Yeah but Dan, hav'nt you found that while you're not working time flies by?
I did when I was'nt working, weeks just flew by man, it was scary :ph34r:
Jonno B)
I never wrote a CV, not sure I'd include everything I've done anyway.
Lets just say that my brief period of working for ford was a tad, hmmm, counter-productive. :ph34r:

I'd call it an educated guess.
I try and be honest with those things, so far it hasn't actually hurt me.
I once got a job after spending a large part of the interview telling the bloke about how badly I did at the ford place.
It does fly by, I have done feck all constructive :lol:

:rolleyes: Surely hours and hours on the internet could be interpreted as constructive couldn't it Dan? :lol:
Mine is the truth :o
