Wow how things have changed, here am i trying to fill in a CV for myself, and it's hard.
Since leaving school all those years ago and in them there days you did just walk into any job, and all you said is "my name is Steve, have you any jobs?" And you were hired.
I have only had two jobs in my life both of which I have enjoyed. The first was a farmer. I used to work there in school holidays so they did know me and it was only natural to go there straight from school. I was so lean and very, very fit and had a great tan too. 1976 that was, then once I had a family, the wage was not enough to live on,
So that's when I moved to where I am now. That was around 1980, and again, just walked in, told a few little lies and got the job. Worked my way up and am now assistant manager,
So here I am, trying to fill in a CV and it's hard. I am the old school, face to face sort of guy. I can sell myself face to face better then writing it down on paper. It seems to be hard saying you can give someone 100% of yourself, plus I know my age is against me too. With the CVs we get ourselves, you read them and you think NO, NO, NO HE MIGHT BE OK , NO, NO, NO, AND IT GOES ON.
I think the way for me is to get on to the agency route if I cannot get satisfaction from my job. They say there is work out there and yes, there is, but there is also crap money and very, very bad employers.
Hay ho, onwards and upwards they say!
