There's hundreds of thousands of people doing jobs they don't particularly like. They do them because they have to.

Again, honestly, not being nasty, your first post was very negative, and bitter towards these part-time jobs, paying thirty-five pounds a week.

Good for them, that are lucky enough to get 'em.

If there's sadly no way to retrain for what you think you'd like to do, you have no option, but to consider an alternative career.

Getting angry, at a situation that isn't going to change, anytime soon, wont secure a NVQ in mentoring skills.

Obviously an intelligent man, you'll perhaps have to think of another path back to employment.

Besides, in a recession probably not a good area to want to get into. Life coaching, skill training, mentoring, are always the first things to have their budgets cut, so there'll be less people seeking those things.

brlieve me gary i've been round the houses searching every possible route back into employment that i can physically do from basic admin to the ideal (as stated above) for which there is plenty of scope for full time employment by the way as it opens several avenues but as i do not posess the relevant qualifications in ANY of these types of employment my experience does not count and i have been told this over and over again by potential employers. and there are thousands in the same boat as me. as for being negative I am all for youth provision however when it comes to unemployment i believe that every opportunity for gaining new skills should be open to everyone regardless of who they are or how old they are. I would be prepared to do anything that i could physically do if someone would just give me the chance to damn well do it. i still have organisations svreaming for me to volunteer for them doing similar stuff to what I would like to do yet paying employers aren't interested.
