Time to hit the agencies - get sent anywhere, shitty jobs and money - but it's better than nothing.

Re: lost my job
Sorry about the lay off mate, that just suks.
Hang in there, one door shuts another opens, don’t start to sell the bike until a month before you have too as I had too once and I know the pain of a forced sale.
I must have applied for 120+ jobs online over 3 months to get this one I have now and I rejected a few crappy offers too, it is a great job that rewards me for all my qual's I got in the last recession we had to have.
But things are very quiet in our industry too atm which is a worry. But things always pick up again, just hope it is soon.
I use seek.com.au mostly and uploaded my resume to be stored there, easy peasy to attach it when you hit the apply button and i get half a dozen auto search hits sent to me daily for my profession

Get your arse into your local Mr Rental store, they are all franchises and are often looking for Mobile Rep's (gloryfied delivery driver's).

Re: lost my job
Man got two weeks before my three month probationary period is up had a bit of an upset this morning with the boss and have been told at my review few things to discuss, man me and my big mouth, fingers crossed I don't have to go and sell myself cause I sure as hell aint selling our bikes, not since I just got them/getting them man this economy sucks.

I'm selfish, impatient and a little insecure. I make mistakes, I am out of control and at times hard to handle. But if you can't handle me at my worst, then you sure as hell don't deserve me at my best.
