So I continue the job search, full of zeal and enthusiasm. Well as much as I can gather these days. In one agency I used the word 'sedentary,' and was asked what this meant. I can excuse the young lass as she may have been temping there herself, but she probably had several 'A' levels and some 'O' ones also I guess to get that job. Yesterday another agency left a message on my ansafone questioning the CV I sent them. This time the woman must earn around £25,000 a year and she also appeared to wonder what I meant by 'sedentary.' I might have been the context but I wonder. Today a different agency questioned my CV. "I got your letter she said, but you did not attach the CV." Yes I did dear, it followed after I signed the letter and said c.v enclosed. It was all one long letter/c.v. maybe it's just me. However I do have a cunning plan that I may put into action soon. Next week, after the long weekend is over and all the days off have passed, I will get the 'Work Programme' folk to actually do something. I think there is a job but might need their help to worm my way in through a 'placement,' the trendy way to do things today. I of course have had lot's of 'cunning plans' in the past wee while, and look where they got me......
And another thing, the tips of my fingers, both of them, are suffering from hammering away at this laptop! I might soon have to wear gloves to type to prevent them becoming blistered and worn! Bah!

Pity you can't apply for their jobs yourself,I bet you would do better. B Good luck with the job hunt, anyway, it sounds quite a struggle.
I looked up the word sedentary in the dictionary, and, sure enough, there was your picture next to it. :) Maybe you should start using "indolent"...
Perservere with the cunning plans.
Jenny, I try by myself but this job might be easier through this lot.
Max, I will look that up and get back to you....
Mo, persevering....
"Did you mean 'Sediment' 'sedimentary', Non Sentient'?
Soub, I am indeed stuck in sediment.....
Have you thought about selling your organs?
