Job Searching

Whilst I am VERY confident that my rock career is just DAYS away from taking off, Nan convinced me today that I should (JUST IN CASE) apply for a few jobs.

Ok, so it is NOT as easy as I thought to find a job after a SMALL amount of time out of work. I thought that with MY cooking experience I would WALK into a Chef's job.
Not so. lol. I had NOT factored in the credit crunch.
For those of you who are BLISSFULLY happy and earning BUCKET loads of cash you may ONLY have heard of the credit crunch on the news, but believe me it NOT a myth.
I asked for a FULL explanation from a friend of a friend who was in the pub last night who had JUST lost his job and was down visiting from LONDON. I asked him to explain to me in Layman's terms EXACTLY what the problem is, and he PUNCHED ME in the HEAD It didn't hurt, but I was TOTALLY baffled - turns out he THOUGHT I was taking the piss???? lmao
Talk about EGGY lol.

Despite these problems, and AGAINST the odds I will DEFO get a good job. I will try and try and try. I will fight for my country in this war on credit.
Trouble is, no matter HOW many applications I send off, NO-ONE is taking on ANY jobs at the moment - NOT lolTold a BIT of a white lie to this one. She couldn't prove me wrong though.

What about if I add a couple of things to my cv, that are more 'creative'? I can mould balloons, see, but I thought juggling was more commercial.

Any thoughts?

OMG the balloon moulding is NOT a reason to employ me, it is symbolic of my CREATIVITY.

I have a LOT of experience in web designing. This is why I have contacted you. If I send over an example of a website I have designed will you have a look and let me know; either way if it is of a suitable standard?
