Mungler Posted June 20, 2008 Report Share Posted June 20, 2008 If it's for a job that Pavman can do I would have expected an ad at Colchester Zoo for a partially trained monkey who wanted to fulfill's its development. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I fear a partially trained monkey would want more than 15K in that case! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blackbart Posted June 20, 2008 Report Share Posted June 20, 2008 At least you have an applicant !I have had an advert in the dole office for over a year for a driver and only had 1 person ring up and it may have been the same person now that i think about it because he started by telling me what hours he would work,what days he wouldnt work,when he normally took his holidays and then ended by saying "when do i start" Some people just dont have a clue Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Harnser Posted June 20, 2008 Report Share Posted June 20, 2008 A couple of years ago my daughter advetised a warehouse mans job at the local job centre .One of the applicants sent by the job centre was a career dole waller and made it quite clear on interview that he had a problem getting up in the mornings . Much to his surprise and annoyance my daughter offerd him the job and told him to report at the depot at 6 am the next monday morning . He off course did not turn up ,so my daughter phoned the job centre and reported the fact that he did not appear . A couiple of days later the job centre phoned my daughter and told her all his benifits had been stopped . Harnser . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

starlight32 Posted June 20, 2008 Report Share Posted June 20, 2008 Pondering on this thread it reminds me of a job I was on up north a few years ago. After taking a new intake of blokes on this particular job the foreman came ito my office moaning about the poor standard of tradesman kicking about. After going out to have a closer look at these two guys who were trying to set up a 36" piece of pipe for a welder I come to the clear conclusion that this not their game. After a little gentle interrogation it turns out the agency had a poor idea of the difference between a 'Pipefitter' and a 'carpet fitter' They even had the carpet stretchers in their toolboxes.... Even though they protested their innocence in the fact the job center told them the job title asked for fitters when they applied I did tell them I am surprised they did'nt cotton on that not many carpet fitters are usually employed on oil refineries...... Especially on nights for 12 hours per day, and paid a grand a week too. I did'nt sack them though- because sometimes you have to admire peoples cheek so I found them something more constructive to do...... but that's another story.......

Zapp Posted June 20, 2008 Report Share Posted June 20, 2008 [If you look further back you will probably find he has a degree and this was the only work he could find. I am inclined to agree that this is either a mammoth "wah" or an idiot graduate. Where I work we had a brief spate where a scientist managed to end up in charge of recruitment, and decided that we needed a load of graduate entrants. The recruitment was a joke, most of the applicants could not walk and talk at the same time, and those who managed to slip through are (with a couple of exceptions) bloody awful. I think you should hire him, if only to bear witness to the fact that a 30 year old with a PhD really can have the social accumen and common sense of a child (through direct experience of one who worked for me) after years and years of having his bum wiped for him in academia ZB Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
