Great work as ever, hold his feet to the flames.
Won't be long before Emma Harrison will be beating a path to your door.

Am I missing something or does this not smack of Napaoleon Dynamite's 'talents'? What talents are you going to podcast that could lead to somebody getting a job?
I get images of kids doing bad sci-fi cartoons and holding them up to a camera, hoping to get a job as newsreader on the back of it.

| Damo, I've had the odd disagreement with you about your posts on employment and benefits culture in the past. Either you've changed a bit or I mis-judged you, for which I apologise.
Good to see you turning your creativity (?!?!) to something other than lists of reasons Leeds are better than Saints. 
Hope you get the backing you need. |

Girls only like guys who have great skills. Like bow hunting skills.
To be fair though, at least some of this has to be about getting kids something they can get involved with. That alone looks better to me when I look at job applications than just sitting around waiting for things to happen. I agree that these kids are going to need some guidance on content if it really is going t enhance their career prospects, but surely it's better to be involved in this sort of project than sit around getting bored and depressed doing nothing? |

| Quote Keith Swiftcorn="Keith Swiftcorn"Well, if that ain't a kick in the collective nuts for all those sanctimonious, thatcherite bottom-wipes who've made sundry disparaging remarks over your lack of employment over the years and pontificated that you should be sweeping the streets or flipping burgers at maccas and be bloody thankful for it as well. Of course, the supreme irony being that those disparaging remarks came mainly from those who spend inordinate amounts of time telling anyone who might listen just how important they are, how important their cosy little sinecure is whilst spending even longer amounts of time logged into rlfans at work, bludging a wage and producing nothing of value. They've never done a hard days work in their lives and they've certainly never done anything that benefits anyone else apart from themselves and their immediate family.
Well done and good luck with the project.
RESPECT DAMO!

I’ll be leaving the talent side to people who are a lot more talented than myself. I’m currently in negotiations with a mate in Italy - www.altmusic.com/
I met those guys a couple years back. One of them let me have a few glasses of Dom Perignon at Norman Bar in Leeds. Kept in touch with them and as it happens they fighting poverty in Italy as well in their own way. They want to set up a link between England and Italy so we can help each other musically and in other areas. In the long run we’ll make this self-reliant so people can enjoy a better life in the music industry. There’s a lot of hard work ahead but I’m not shirking.

I’m glad I’m pursuing this project now and not in 2009/2010/2011 when I was mostly extremely depressed. But during those times I’ve managed to read the opinions of people on here who’ve worked in and around that industry and they’ve influenced me a lot. If it wasn’t for those opinions I would probably shun a lot of people because of my previous misguided thoughts on their intentions.
My opinion will never change on people like Emma Harrison though. People like her are the reason why this country is in such a state when it comes to helping the unemployed back into work. I wished we had more people like LTID who had no airs or graces (within reason I’m assuming) about who helped into work. I’m sure that if he worked in my local job centre I would have had a job by now. But that’s not even the full story because there’s other factors to consider also.
Thanks for the support mate and no need to apologise

I must be missing something also. All I can get in my head is 100 jobs applied for. I hope that is incorrect, because 100 in that time period in this climate, is sheer laziness. People out there, especially the ones he's trying to make out he want's to help out here, who have been applying for thousands of jobs without success. Your story looks embarrasing to those. |

I would suggest that if you're applying for "thousands" of jobs, you're probably not being selective enough. There really is no point in applying for something you're blatantly unsuited to, and I can't believe there are literally thousands of job descriptions that most people would read and genuinely say "ooh, yeah, that sounds like me." |

When there’s people more qualified, more experienced than myself applying for thousands of jobs and not getting them, then what hope have the likes of me got? That’s the mentality I have when applying for jobs. Fine I have been lazy (in comparison to some people) in my job search but my laziness is justified by what I just said.
I’m not willing to spend a lifetime on the dole applying for three jobs a week. Life is too short and no one should have to go through that for long periods of time. |
