So here are some funny pictures advertising a site called jobsintown.de (note: I am not affiliated with them in any way. I gather they are an employment agency or job finding service - and not a Steve Jobs, the other kind). They’re a smart marketing technique - relating conventional, everyday tasks to humorous but menial jobs. I think they’re pretty clever. I hope you enjoy them.

But finding a job nowadays has to be one of the most heart-breaking and difficult things you have to do. Regardless of your level of preparation, I think it’s a big thing to put yourself out there, to lay your abilities on the line against an unknown number of competitors. I would not be surprised if this is one reason why so many people are deciding to work from home, or to run a home business instead of looking for a position in government or private industry.
