What jobs have you had?

[Wayne]

I used to work in Poundland - I was promoted to shop supervisor/weekend store manager (thats what I say anyways! :P). I left when I had a dispute with the homphobic manager - wages were crap. £6.14 per hour and not worth it for the amount of work you end up doing! :roll: My most recent job was with JD Wetherspoons as a Bar Associate. £5.85 per hour, I loved it! :D

[bigdan]

It's not for lack of trying, because I've applied for hundreds of jobs, but I've never actually had one. :cry: It's not getting any easier either.

[HeatSeeker]

I've done some gardening with my dad over the summer for cash, but I've never had an official, steady job due to school and sports taking up my time.

[Blossom]

I've never held down a job but when I was in Transition Year in school (2001-2002) I did work experience with a TV station, a radio station and an insurance company. :)

HAHA well we were giving out free champagne last night, and were sending round drag queens to give out free shots, and also having mini-competitions - i.e. come get your free shot of sambuca whilst this four minute song plays! :P

We've got lined up in the next few weeks - appearances by the Freemasons (well the voice - that Amanda lady! :P) and the Saturdays :D

[James]

Wow I love Amanda Wilson...... I love that song she did with the Freemasons I think its called "I Feel Like" or something.

Whats the name of this bar and why do you have celebrity guests?

Must be a nice place

[Wayne]

The name is Propaganda. I don't know why we have celebrity guests, but we just do! :P Its part of a chain of gay bars across the UK - there's one in Hull I believe! We have themed nights each night - and one of the best DJ's in the midlands. Its lovely inside - white leather seating etc

[Neil]

The Saturdays :D

[Wayne]

[James]

Aren't they there to bring people into the bar? If ppl don't know when they are gonna be there then ppl won't go.

I think your just drunk Wayne....... DRUNK ON POWER

[Neil]

LOL. are the Saturday's any good live?

Although sometimes I see them live on TV and think they sound like a hot mess :rofl:

[James]

Yeah, they are a HOT mess! But in a good way...I'd be embarassed to get starstruck around them though, seeing as they're younger than me :P

I bet you any money you get starstruck........ just promise you won't cry or scream like a girl
