The guy was more thats wrong I want this then they would say thats not right but change it . Then he.s want it changing back. He kicked of course he didn't like tiles even though he picked em. Every reveal had to be spot on to mm .
 
It's logistics. Though most people in UK don't consider Ireland abroad, it is. So I will in fact, be emigrating which is a substantial undertaking. You need a job and a place to live and some money and you need them all together at the same time....with work being so thin on the ground here, it's very difficult to get ahead. Nobody is building or renovating. Plus, who I can work for is ...put it this way, to a jobbing builder I'm a f**k**g Godsend because I can hold my own on site in all aspects of, say, a small extension.
Footings? Sure. Consider it done.
Brickes got a question? Steve's the foreman, ask him. He'll have the plans.
Base? No problems.
Pad...float it up today, Boss.
Did you do the drains? Of course I did, you f**k**g mong.
Board it, skim it, render it...no problem.
Roof it, fit the fascia and soffit, fit the gutters, lay the paths.

Goddammit, with me around a jobbing builder can more or less walk off site when we break ground and come back just in time to collect the money.

But for specialist trades, I'm not much more than a jumped up labourer. Which is awkward when it comes to applying for jobs and not many people who desperately need a guy like me advertising for one.

Bada bing...there it is.


What area you thinking of moving back to, there are some cheap areas near me where you could buy a house do it up round you and work your way back up the ladder so to speak with your experience, I am much the same as you, can turn my hand to most things.

If you were to come back and be self employed, shirley yu don't need a job to go to as you woud be creating a business?

I love Ireland, especially the South but the economy has tanked from what I heard a few years back, a real shame as the people are lovely and the scenery is stunning and the bike racing insane :)

Businesses are great....but you need customers.

I'm thinking of going back on the road....pretty easy to relocate doing that, if you can kip in the cab....some of the continental firms even configure thing sin such a way as to live in the cab 7 days a week and park in their yard on rest days....that's proper hardcore hobo trucking....can't say I'd like it much but it'd get me going....

There's a few bits of training I have to do first and that ain't free. Hoping to get squared away round xmas time.

No worries, I was wondering why someone off here couldn't 'Employ'you on paper if it sorted your emigration prospects, especially if you are handy and could help bash jobs out.

Ohhhh. I see. No, I'm British and even if I was Irish, I could work in UK.

The issue is doign stuff like living in a house and eating and stuff like that. There's no dole for a bit when you get back from abroad and even if there was,it's not much. Jobs ...well, people usually want to interview you and it all mounts up, especially if you're coming from a country with f**k all cashflow.

People on here won't give me a job because they're all c**ts.
