...in order to look for a job. And by equality, it really means "prove you're British to us."

Fuck, man. Apparently my citizencard and driving license and birth certificate aren't valid proof that I am British. Among the questions on this bullshit are:

What ethnicity do you identify yourself as?

Now surely what I identify myself as and what I actually am could be two wildly different things. Similar to the whole man trapped in a woman's body thing, I'm pretty sure it's plausible to be say, an Asian trapped in a black man's body, or vice-versa.

Fuck forms >.> I just want a job

I love that wording

[Galactus]

Well if you were of mixed ethnicity. Most don't identify themselves as mixed. I know several spanish/caucasian people who say they are caucasian, even if it is mixed.

[SushiKitten]

I think that's pretty ridiculous that they have to do something like that..

I don't even think ethnicity is one of the things they're allowed to ask you in an interview here, along with age, marital status, and a few other things.

[Bowsette]

It had a bunch of mixed-race options too. I just went with white because...well, I'm white. I don't see how that determines whether I'm British or not though.

I've also learned something. I am not qualified to be a secretary. Apparently I need an RSAIII in Word Processing.

What the fuck why is there a qualification just for word processing? Anyone who can use a computer properly is already most likely skilled in word processing. Fuck people fuck employers fuck the world arghhhh

[Galactus]

I would think the same. An equality questionnaire that makes you specify why you are diverse.

I also had to fill out my sexual preference, age, relationship status. I hate forms ._.

Also, apparently because I added "English Language" to my list of skills, I'm being recommended jobs in translating German.

And people wonder why my government is shit.

Just become a stripper. Great pay, no experience necessary. >.>

Also I just got another job recommendation. Structural Engineer. Do these people even look at the skills I've written down

You must not have been to many strip clubs. In the movies they show the strippers as these perfect model-eqsue girls. Trust me, most strip clubs I have been to are filled with normal looking girls, perhaps even a bit on the heavy side. Which I don't mind. I actually prefer curvy girls. <.<

[Bowsette]

My body is covered in scars Nobody wants to see that.

Apparently my listed skills (English Language, Word Processing, Typing) mean I'm capable of working as a Graduate Mechanical Engineer.

Fuck, man. This sucks.

[Galactus]

Lol Mechanical Engineer sounds like fun though?

You could always try... McDonalds? or a similar establishment. Servers at restaurants make decent pay around here. I knew one which who made like $20 an hour just waiting tables.

I really don't want to end up working in fast food if I can help it. I spent five years in retail, I don't think I'd survive going lower >.>'

There are some strip clubs around here where there's a 9/10 chance that any given stripper will have stab wounds, bullet holes or a combination of both.

Well that's a scary thought. Actually, I don't know of any strip clubs in my area. This could be a lucrative business investment.

Curvy women are taking the world of sexy back!!!

For awhile there, we were replaced by skinny models

Curvy is the best. Skinny = No thanks!

[dodonique]

I don't think I've ever been skinny. I've always been fit but no matter what there were always certain areas that would not go down in size >.<
