# I've been applying for shit
Like shit loads of just shitty jobs, but nothing yet.
It's a right pain in the arse.

# Where do you live again?
(general geographical location )
My friend owns a national agency in the construction and related trade industry. If you are not a total invalid I might get you a name and number for a local office.

# Im in Brum at the moment
All trade jobs, even labourer require some gay CCS card or something

# you can get a CCS card in no time
and for no money. It's a good idea to have one actually. Go into the job centre or CAB and tell them you want a CSCS so that you can do general site labour. Do it man. Even if I were still trading and had a job for you, you'd still have to have that now or I could not pay you.

# What is it? Just constuction safety basically?

# construction skills certification scheme.
It's meant to be about safety and competence but it's actually a government scheme to stop people getting paid in the hand.

it's worth having and if you need skills and certificates ( there are many, even using a ladder needs certification now ) just get into the job centre and make them work for you finding placement on courses. That's their fucking job after all.

edit:// you know the score, asp links don't work, copy paste the link for the site.

# Cool, ta, I'll have a look into it, maybe on wednesday,
I've gotta go to the benefit office tomorrow and the bank to see if they'll extend my overdraft so my rent can come out.
Wish me luck!

# good luck.
But you are at the benefit office. Ask to see someone and tell them you want to go on courses and get a cscs card, at my expense ;)
