Thanks, Perna. Sorry you have trouble with phones as well.

I've learned in all the inbetween years that if you've got to do it, you've got to do it and you just do, getting fatalistic about it and just getting through it. Eventually you feel better and go on to the next scary challenge :-)

Good luck on getting a call-back from sending out your CV. Send to civil engineering and surveying companies and tell them you want to be a "rodman". They teach you how to do that and with your schooling they'll be willing to (it's a no-brainer but pays okay, 4-5 pounds an hour). But it's outside all day, just wandering around fields and stuff :-)

I'm actually looking for work as a draughtsperson (I've been teaching myself how to use SolidWorks)...and I've already heard back from a packaging company, who said they may have something for me. The person who emailed said he has to check with the rest of the department first, though.
