do those people who teach unemployment sessions get employed from when they were unemployed?

i mean, who the hell would want to come to work everyday and look at a room full of people who just lost their jobs, where maybe 1/30th of them will be eating a bullet before they find another job

the dude in the front row who REALLY WANTS A JOB ?

tubgirl is arguably one of the most effective human roadside IEDs





except for religious fanatics with explosives strapped to them, those are pretty effective too

You basically have to suck a lot of dick through gas station glory holes until you get a dick of someone who will give you a (another) unusual job.

I mean, how do some folks end up as, for example, riverboat captains or master cabinet makers? Do you just one day up and decide I'm going to study and train to be a riverboat captain? Is it because your father made cabinets and worked with wood and so now you will too?

What I'm really trying to ask is how do you think you could get an unusual job such as:
  1. Batman's Assistant
  2. Janitor at the white house
  3. Electrician for high security government projects
  4. Bill Gates' plumber
  5. Your dead gay son
  6. Hot dog restaurant owner in Reform, AL
  7. Owner of video game company that doesn't produce video games
  8. Owner/operator of a failed comedy forums website
  9. Star-Trek enthusiast, forums moderator, and pedophile

There are many other jobs out there that would be interesting but these are just a few that I could think of. How does one get these jobs?

This is a weird mix of trying to hard and lazy references.

i was thinking about being an exterminator this morning. what do you need to do to become a self employed or apprentice exterminator? i know they usually have lots of certs and licenses but i never heard of any night school classes or vocational training for exterminators to be.

thats been my standard for filling in 'gaps in employment' on my resume and it works oh so well...but i am already very familiar with cars and the practice of finding and flipping cars both personally and through friends/relatives who actually do so...so i can talk all day long about 'my business' and they always just lap it right up (even when they get all smug and start asking for $ figures to back up my bullshit). lol

nobody i know has ever had this problem but most of the cars never even get registered to begin with and if they need to get driven they will just get trailered or have a borrowed dealer or repair plate thrown on the back.

One of my first jobs was to make purple check marks next to SSNs on piles and piles of cards. One day the boss comes in and says they can only keep one of us. One of the ladies I worked with fell down some stairs and broke her pelvis so I got to keep my jorb.
