Default Job needed

Hi Guys,

I've (very!) recently left the employment of 'Brilliant Fireworks' due to, let's say, "artistic differences" (see 'St George's Reloaded' if you need details!) and was wondering if anyone had any FT/PT work available? What with the season just around the corner I'm sure there's plenty to do!

I'm based in London, but travel isn't a major difficulty. Display work, office stuff, anything really. Oh, and I do make a cracking cup of tea!

PM me if you know anything/have anything going.

Cheers,

Dan

After what went on at the Woodman, I'm not sure you'll get many offers. Also after the problems with your UKFR account, please don't ask me for a reference either.

I think you'll need to invest some time and energy establishing yourself as a credible and trustworthy member again. But good luck and I (genuinely) hope it works out for you.

To be fair, didn't we all say at the time that no-one had any issues with anyone else from Brilliant? The two crew who were there were fine (and seemed a little embarrassed by the "atmosphere" created by the boss), and TeaBoy wasn't there at all.

Can't comment about the subs problem obviously!

To be fair (and I do understand where you're coming from) The Woodman display had very little to do with me. I was asked to 'get us into the event', which I did. I completely disagree with how the Company behaved over the event, and have said so (and did internally post-event too). The account issue was again somewhat beyond my control (although I do take reponsibility for the 2nd signature c0ck-up, and have apologised and rectified the issue).

As suggested I will be investing effort and time (currently got plenty of it!) on here, and without having 'promote the company' shouted at me it should be a tad easier!

Don't tar everyone with the same brush.

HOWEVER:

As I'm desperately in need of some paid work too, he's a lazy git!

Fair enough, if it was all genuinely beyond your control or nothing to do with you then I stand corrected and apologise for tarring you with that brush, your reply puts my mind at rest anyway.

I had you in mind for a windscreen flyer job, but it seems you have no previous experience after all

What does it pay, and when do I start?
