i would but i dont have time im at college 3 days a week and spend most of rest of the time doing chores and homework.

but im getting kicked out unless i find a job within the next 2-3 months

edit: the reason why im looking for a job rather than an apprentiship is because the pay is better and to get propper work experience instead of the kind im dong with college.

i have work experience not long after christmas as well an ill be doing it in a school in cosely

you will struggle at the minute to find a job, people are letting go and not employing due to the current financial climate.
